Are You Getting the Training You Actually Need?

How do you know whether an acting

class, workshop or teacher is actually right for you?

In Episode #443 of Casting Actors

Cast, casting director, teacher, author and former actor Jeffrey Dreisbach

looks beyond recommendations and famous techniques to explore what good actor

training should actually accomplish.

Jeff discusses how actors can

identify what they genuinely need before choosing a class, the “intermediate

plateau” that can keep actors training without progressing, evaluating teachers

and techniques, budgeting for professional development, knowing when you've

outgrown a class, and the difference between feeling challenged and actually

learning.
