The Freeman Studio was founded to serve working professional actors, as well as promising actors looking to develop their talents. Therefore, we do not offer classes for those pursuing acting as a hobby. Understandably, not all actors are continuously working. But is is important to the aesthetics and mission of the studio that our peer level be comprised of those ardently in pursuit of that goal. To be granted enrollment, an actor must have at least a basic foundation of training or a reliable and describable way of working.
For the classes and workshops, each actor must arrange a New Actor Meeting. This is an opportunity for us to meet you and see your work for possible placement and enrollment. Some actors may be asked to present a monologue; otherwise, enrollment is granted based on the actor’s resume, experience and/or by references.
Our goal is to ensure that every actor we enroll has the skills to excel in that given class. So, for the early-career classes, an audition/interview is required. For the veteran actors, their resume, reel and/or a reference from an industry professional may suffice in lieu of an audition. But in those cases, we still want to meet everyone. As our work is so prescriptive, the meeting allows us to have a greater understanding of each actor’s goals. And since we do not allow audits, the meeting allows the actor to ask questions and learn more before enrolling.
Please submit a New Actor Inquiry using the form below. Be sure to select the correct location and include a headshot and resume! In the message field, kindly share more about yourself and your goals. One of our staff members will respond to you as soon as possible with the next steps. We look forward to meeting you!
