A Message From Larry...
“For the last twenty years, I have brought my true acting institute to every part of the globe, offering the Meisner technique to thousands of professional and aspiring actors, directors & screenwriters. I have been fortunate to have great students, all striving to grow and willing to do the rigorous work necessary to make progress in this most demanding approach to acting. The work is as thrilling for me now as when I sat in class with Sandy Meisner. I am happy to experience, in my trips throughout Europe, South America and Canada, a profound hunger for this most organic and healthy process."
