    Truthful Acting - Open house

    We accompanied a friend of ours here for an open house as they are registering to go to school…read morehere. This was quite different from any school I've dealt with before but because of what they teach it's actually an excellent venue. They have multiple parts to their building, including a small theater where they put on performances. We were here for a couple of hours while the one cofounder talked us through everything the school does. We got a full tour and quite the education on how things will work. We also got to introduce to several of the existing students who came to help answer questions from the potential students and their guests. I can definitely see where pretty much anyone could benefit from going to school here.

    I recently attended Truthful Acting's Meisner Master classes and loved it. I'm 50 and new to the…read morearea so wanted to meet people and build a network of like minded creative friends. I didn't expect it to change my entire thinking on humans, emotions and life in general- and all for the better! I had been acting for years, but always felt a little wobbly in my process and authenticity- Marco and Robb helped me transform my ways and I feel like I can deliver more substantive performances now. Plus, I have started booking roles other than just commercials! The curriculum is well-structured, thoughtful and challenging. The instructors are incredibly knowledgeable and supportive, offering clear explanations and helpful strategies to approaching roles using the Meisner technique. One of the most valuable aspects of the course of course is meeting the other students and finding a safe inclusive environment. Encouragement to be ourselves, commitment to being present helps even the shyest among us shine. Positive immediate feedback helps us progress while homework and serious study leads to success. This is not a passive education- this is a hands on, what you put in is what you get out type conservatory, In addition to Meisner acting, the school provides useful resources and information like job boards, how to audition, write a resume, headshots, find an agent and more. Marco and Robb and Sam are the most gracious and open people so no question is denied. I am looking forward to continuing my studies with Truthful as the courses are always progressing with changes in the industry. Do yourself a favor and attend an open house at least and feel the welcome. I bet you will meet alumni and current student who show up just to hang out- because Truthful is their home away from home- where we feel our true selves.

    Loved Shauna's CAST class, for commercial acting. It was over Zoom this year, but I still think it…read morewas worth it. It was filled with tips, tricks, and just a fun time! I can say I have the confidence to go out and try to start booking now! At the end of the class, Shauna helps you find an agent and does a taping for you, which is great. She has been in the industry for a long time and knows everything about it! Its great to have a local and genuine teacher, not one of those scam places you hear advertising on the radio lol! Take the class if this is something that interests you and you will not regret it!

    I'm a graduate of both core classes of Cast Studio Orlando. I highly recommend each one…read more As a relative beginner, CAST took me step by step, week by week, into what it takes to be CAST in commercials. This class prepares you to walk (or ZOOM!) into any audition feeling confident in your knowledge of the protocols, etiquette and expectations... no matter if you're required to "just react", eat on camera, actually speak - or possibly all 3! You learn that you may be CAST solely on your look, your age range or a host of other things that have very little to do with actual talent. Your professionalism, or lack thereof, can really stand out in the CASTing process. ACT exposes you to the process of developing your ACTing skills. You'll learn how to examine a script, develop a character and bring LIFE to a scene. Numerous class exercises demonstrate how your internal work and reACTions result in different outcomes, connections & moments on camera. A few things, I specifically appreciate: - Shauna was and IS a booking/working actor. - You see "on-camera" feedback ~every class. - Shauna is well prepared & starts class on time. (Believe it or not, it's an issue @other schools) - Although very interactive, she respects your investment & maintains control of the class. - She has endless antidotes to share and is humble enough to include her own "teachable moments" along with her success stories. Last, but not least, Shauna is well respected among area casting directors and agents, as well as other actors. As a result of her sharing video of our final class assignment AND my efforts to follow up - TWO agents asked to meet with me AND offered to sign me. Of course, no class or coach can guarantee any level of success for you... but I am proud to say, as someone who got a VERY late start, I am officially a working actor with an agent who believes in me... AND I continue to work with Shauna as an audition coach/videographer. Shauna delights in seeing her students grow & succeed... not only because of who we are... but because of who SHE is.

    There are some amazing things about this theatre space…read more I love the way the doors can slide open so on nice Orlando nights it's like an open air entrance. I love how beautiful the stairwell is going up to two. I love how much they have expanded their food and beverage line up over the years. The sound tends to be pretty good, the communication from the theatre is always amazing. They waive fees if you come to the box office to buy your tickets. The seats are comfy and almost every seat has a solid view. The box seats are the exception so be warned. The volunteers are always amazing and they are so nice. It would be cool if they opened a second location that served coffee because that line for espresso beverages is always really long. I love the breadth of show types. There's always something for everyone.

    Wednesday, March 18, 2026…read more Front Row, Center Tickets to Ms. Diana Ross' Concert Performance I've been to numerous events at the Dr. Phillips Center but nothing beats having the opportunity to see a legend perform within arms-length to where you're seated. And when that "Icon of Icons" is none other than Ms. Diana Ross...well, nothing else need be said. It was a dream come true to say the least. In my most previous update of the Dr. Phillips Center I indicated meeting with and having my photograph taken with the incredible soprano Sarah Brightman was an entertainment highlight of 2025. 2026 has just begun but I will have to use the superlative "spectacular" once again. As in a spectacular show from start to finish. Diana Ross may be 81 years old!...but she still has the voice and ahem...the moves of a much younger performer. Just think of this, she was performing with the Supremes in the 1960's. I wasn't even born and by the time I was she had 12 number one singles with the OG of girl groups! And she is still working it to this day. Ms. Ross sung a multitude of her hits which kept the crowd, and my sister and I, dancing and singing throughout the evening. However, when she started to belt out Gloria Gaynor's anthem "I Will Survive" that really got the audience out of their seats. An Icon singing and Iconic piece of music is an experience second to none. Ms. Ross, you and your mark on music history is unmatched...blessings to you and your family!

Then switches back on a dime and exveryone is supposed to forget about it. Even if little ones not yelled at, they see this. My child was approached and pressured to join company without consulting with me first, causing a year long rift with my child the next year as the constant performances even at places like country clubs and restaurants did not fit into our family's schedule as we have 2 other kids and their schedules to balance, and added rehearsals week of a showdolls show were too much with school. Plus, i work nights so could not volunteer as the mothers are expected to make it their life too, for no discounts or pay or anything. The instruction was just okay, and the acro in particular was really lame. Way overcrowded and work on the same 4 moves for years. Also, they are laying all over the floor and it's filthy, do not have a cleaning company because it's all about the money there and totally disorganized...lice and athlete's foot run rampant all year. We switched mid year to another studio and it is worth the drive. No mothers expected to work for free, clean as a whistle, no bubbling floors, they pay staff well and teachers are good, more than one show a year without comiting to 'company' and nice people who will not go postal on your kid. Do yourself a favor and RUN! Don't be fooled by proximity when the personalities could damage how your child feels about her talents.
