"I loved how Kurt Naebig (Monologue) was flexible, talking about recent audition experiences we had each week, and using them as teachable moments.  I loved how positive and encouraging his teaching style is!  This class was a great way to both find new pieces and also get them audition ready."

— Christie Coran

"This class went far above my expectations. Kurt Naebig (Advanced Scene Study) is a great teacher and knows how to get everyone to give performances beyond what they thought was capable.  Kurt creates a safe, positive, collaborative, and fun environment.  By using the twelve guideposts that Kurt teaches in class, I have found so much more possibility for creation in the characters I play.  Kurt knows how to take actors to the next level.  What I learned here I will use in my acting career at all times."

— Peter Surma

"Jack Bronis for Level 1 Shurtleff is great at giving balanced feedback as well as helping students to discover rather than telling them what to do.  Jack is fun and engaging.  He knows how to direct and encourage "newbies" like me."
