Private Acting and Vocal Coaching for Kids and Teens

with Michael Kaplan

Got a big audition coming up? College Auditions around the corner? Need new songs or monologues for your audition binder but you can't find the perfect pieces, or figure out the best cut? Want an acting class specifically focused on your strengths and weaknesses, designed to enhance your strengths and focus on areas that could use improvement?

No two actors are alike. What works for one actor, doesn't connect with another. As a coach, Michael Kaplan will to start by learning about you and your process (even if you don't have one yet). He will then tailor his coaching to help you define and perfect your personal acting process.

Mike offers 1-on-1 Acting, Voice, and Repertoire Coaching at From Stage to Screen Acting Studio in Highland, NY or online over Zoom.
