FEEDBACK FROM PAST COURSES!

Course Outline

“This workshop opened my eyes to so many possibilities in realistic acting.  I took
this workshop not knowing what to expect and got a gift from the acting gods!  I
cannot express my satisfaction with John Strasberg enough.  Again: He has a true
respect for good acting and refuses to compromise his ideas. 
Thanks John and thanks A.C.T.!”

I would like to see John brought back again regularly.  I have recommended already to
local well-known filmmakers that they take this workshop next time he’s in town. It’s a must
for producers, directors, and writers! I have witnessed what I consider small miracles in actors
and acting transformation over a few days.  The kind of results that John brings is EXACTLY
the kind of acting that I am looking for in film/tv and other media work. I know many filmmakers
in Ottawa who would be thrilled to see the level of acting that the local actors are capable of, thanks
to John. If they continue to study under him, we might have more than just few good actors that we
always hire.  This will only help to make better quality local productions that can help to raise the
profile of the films produced here and help bring more production dollars to Ottawa, leading to
more opportunities for actors, directors, writers, crews! Producers alone cannot bring in the badly
needed production moneys if Ottawa area does not have a great pool of talent in all key creatives,
especially for indie films that can make or break on whether we have enough good actors! I can hear
all those complaining directors/ producers jump for joy when they see the results John brings!!!  I will
try to have as many filmmakers out to the next one as possible.
I just hope Toronto doesn’t steal him from us…
