"I went to W 54th street, The Acting Studio, and I took a 10-week (Meisner) course... it was fabulous."-Tony Danza (Star of TV, Broadway & Film)
SANFORD MEISNER...
PRINCIPLES of ACTING -
INTRODUCTION To MEISNER - class is the most-recommended acting class at the studio. A 10-week class starting with the Meisner basic skills and their application to the first scene. For BEGINNERS as well as WELL-SEASONED PROFESSIONALS.
In my opinion, James Price and John Grabowski are the best teachers/coaches in the business, and John Grabowski is a phenomenal director. If you want solid training and a supportive environment to develop and grow as an actor, The Acting Studio Inc. is the place for you. It will be one of the best investments you’ll ever make in your acting career.

When I founded The Acting Studio, Inc., almost 30 years ago in 1983, I wanted to create a place where actors not only could study acting but one where they could also gain invaluable, practical experience by actually doing it in performance. Since its inception, the Studio has provided students with the finest professional actor training they need to develop themselves into first-rate craftsmen.
This year marks the 30th anniversary of The Acting Studio Inc. – New York and to celebrate, the studio is proud to announce the first year of the newest 1-year, full time conservatory program.
The conservatory program started on October 7th, 2013….
