THE ACTOR PREPS Mondays and Tuesdays @ 7:30 I've seen it too many times. The trained actor is always over thinking the two line co-star audition and blowing it. This widdles down their confidence and self-esteem and each audition pushes them further away from their goal. They take the rejection personally and slowly walk away from a career in acting. Getting the job is not the work. Getting the job is being pampered in trailer dressing room, whisked into make-up, fawned over by wardrobe, and then reporting to set for a few takes and then leaving or taking a break. The WORK is preping the audition. You were chosen to audition from over 2000 submissions (maybe more) and picked as the top 15-30 to read (i call it perform). Congratulations you are working now. #theactorpreps #kurtkoehler

There is a glow when you hear someone booked an episode of something or other. That means out of the thousand submissions, they were the top 15 or 30 chosen to read. Then out of that small number they were widdled down to the top 5 and then of course, the one who books the job. Jack Plotnik gave this great bit of advise and I advise all my students the same, "Let go of the need to book the job." It helps so much more if you book the room. This becomes important for your future bookings. THE ACTOR PREPS
It's always cliche' to say something sappy and mushy when you're so proud of an accomplishment you've achieved...so I will say this. I 'm ADDING MONDAY NIGHT CLASSES in APRIL. Only $100 for the Audition Technique Class that will level the playing field at your next audition. Students from this past year have really been making a difference in the career goals and I know it's because they've been flexing that muscle every week. That audition muscle that was not taught in college or scene study. Don't even get me started on cold reading class. If you're serious about booking, come learn how. My student's bookings do not lie. #workingactor #auditions #laauditions #auditiontechnique #auditionclass #actingclass
One year ago today I started a new class on Audition Technique. Something you aren't trained for in college or scene study. It's time to start booking the office! The Actor Preps is a monthly class, once a week where you are sent sides for a co-star and a guest star and prep like a real audition. You bring it to class and attempt to book the room. It's a muscle and it's a skill and it's affordable. $100 for four weeks. Classes Tuesday nights and Monday nights! Class size is limited.

So proud of my students getting a co-star and a trailer! Doreen has been not only so focused and so driven she's created a business where she shares her drive with others THE RECOGNIZED ACTOR. #workingactor #bookedit
Auditions always seem stressful? Maybe you didn't prep the material enough? Learn to audition and take the stress out of the game. Learn the tricks of the trade. You were taught to act but not taught how to book.
THE ACTOR PREPS - monthly classes, every Tuesday. Get two sets of sides for each class and practice and craft your audition technique. Students are booking, are you? Last night was the last class of the year, and in less than a year we've had so many success stories and bookings. Looking forward to 2016 and more bookings.
January Tuesdays ( three classes 1/6, 1/19, 1/26) $75 February Tuesdays (four classes 2/2, 2/9, 2/16 and 2/23) $100 Prepay both months before Dec 24th and save $25 Jan/Feb Special $150 Start your New Year right! Prepare to book! Twelve years together, four stage shows, three webisodes, three music videos and three cities toured, the ANGELS are getting old, but they're even funnier than ever.

Christopher Chen has been a student since August 2015 and he finally booked! He shot ADAM RUINS EVERYTHING last Friday and now onto the next audition. Are you prepared?
Are you going to big? You have to learn to ground your performance. You are not the comedian /star of the show if you're auditioning for a co-star. You are there to make the Series Regular funnier. You need to practice this or you're wasting your time and loosing out with casting offices.
