Each summer The Studio/New York offers a handful of student actors an opportunity to spend six weeks training with the Studio's faculty in a very special program, our Summer Conservatory. Geared towards college juniors, seniors and recent graduates, the program was designed specifically to meet the needs of younger actors who are ready to engage in serious training and artistic development. It offers a rare opportunity to spend six weeks completely immersed in an exciting, fast-paced program led by some of the most respected and talented names in actor training. The curriculum, a condensed/concentrated version of one semester at a top graduate school program, consists of Fitzmaurice voicework, clown, mask, movement, Lucid Body and scene study. Classes meet eight hours per day, Monday - Friday, for six weeks, and are lead by a faculty unsurpassed both in excellence and experience. Our faculty's attention and commitment to each student's individual development is unparalleled in the New York training community!! Our goal... to help those actors in our charge make a quantum leap in their development in six weeks. We offer a strong foundation in craft, we help each actor release old patterns that are getting in the way, and we aim to give each actor a personal understanding of his or her dimensions as an actor and the role serious training can play in developing those possibilities.
To learn more about just how far this level of training can take you, I encourage you read what our past students have to say about their experiences below.
