Truthful Acting Studios has been absolutely life changing for me. Prior to starting here, I was searching for acting … More classes as a creative outlet and to get back into performing after a bit of a hiatus. I chanced going to an open house and was instantly hooked. I’ve since taken multiple classes at this school and love the community surrounding this place.★★★★★
Personally, I’ve seen tremendous growth and confidence in myself that I’ve never experienced before and gotten over some of my performance anxiety that made me always hesitate in various aspects of my daily life. The positive changes you’ll find are invigorating and will echo throughout different facets of your life.
Both Marco and Robb are incredible instructors who deeply care about their students. What you learn here is more than just taking acting classes… you will discover yourself in a very supportive and loving environment. I cannot recommend this school enough whether you just want to find top-notch acting classes, to work on public speaking/performance anxiety, or to try out a new hobby.
Trust me, what you learn here is worth every penny whether you want to be a professional actor or not. It doesn’t matter how you come to find yourself here. What does is that you remember that You Are Always Enough. Don’t let fear of starting keep you from reaching your full potential. -

I just LOVE Truthful Acting Studios so much. In the beginning of 2023, I decided to take my very 1st acting class. … More I read through the reviews and decided to join. Trust me, the reviews did not lie. Sam, Marco and Rob will make you feel super comfortable even if it's your first time. The students I've met are some of the most amazing humans and the atmosphere is a collaborative one instead of a competitive one. I completed the Meisner Program and Voice class and will be back for more classes once I give birth soon. If you're looking for an amazing acting conservatory, then look no further, this is it 🙂★★★★★ -

The best acting school in the world. It transformed my life for better, it's more than acting classes, it's … More a life changing experience, full of love, a loving community, and very healing. Marco is the best instructor in the world, he is like a Guru, he teaches you, through acting how to be yourself and express your real emotions and that's the reason it's called Truthful Acting. Robb is also an amazing instructor, very kind and knowledgeable. I highly recommend it to anyone, you are not too old to change and learn how to be Truthful 😍★★★★★ -

Truthful Acting Studios was one of the best experiences I’ve had in my performing arts journey. The teachers are … More passionate and believe in their work and in us. You meet people you never would have otherwise. I truly believe there is no acting studio like it. Take ANY class and I’m sure you won’t regret. I didn’t.★★★★★ -

It's extremely difficult to put into words how much this place means to me. This group of people have helped … More me begin to realize many things about myself I never knew existed. I'm 33 years old and a year ago I thought I was stuck where I was. Life has a funny way of tricking you into getting into your own way but you will begin to look at yourself differently. You will allow yourself to realize that who you are, truly, is precisely who you need to be. No more and no less is required, only you. Now give yourself a chance. Thank you Robb, Marco and Sam! You are all amazing people, thank you so much for all the love and support. Thank you to all of my classmates past, present, and future I love you all.★★★★★ -

I can't begin to sing the praises of Truthful Acting Studios without first thanking Sam, Robb, and Marco. … More They are absolutely phenomenal human beings, and they have become family. They truly care about you as a person, and they show it time and time again. The Master Meisner program is life changing. Not only will this program make you a better actor, but it'll also make you a better person. I learned so much over the past 8 months, and I look forward to continuing my journey at TA by taking every class I can. I highly recommend TA to every actor, whether you're just starting out or you've been in the industry for a while. I also recommend any this program for anyone looking to try something new and step out of their comfort zone. You'll be truly amazed at how this program changes your life.★★★★★ -

I’ve wanted to be an actress since I was a little girl. I studied theater all through school and stopped after … More college. The reason for the break was a combination of things including a nagging voice in my head telling me “I am not good enough”. Years went by but I still had part of me holding on to that dream of becoming an actress. I stumbled onto Truthful acting studios website and saw that they were hosting an open house in a few days. I decided to check it out. I met the instructors that day and toured the classrooms and theater. I didn’t have any questions for them but they passed the vibe check and so did the facility itself. I took a leap of faith and signed up for Meisner 1 with Robb. Since stumbling into this community I have found my love for acting again. I found the right instructors for me and I now believe, I am enough. It has been one of the most wonderful experiences of my life so far. Marco, Robb and Sam are the nicest, most caring, and knowledgeable people in the world. I have made so many incredible friends and have grown a lot as an artist. If you are even the tiniest bit curious about acting or just want to try something new, this is the place for you. I highly recommend it.★★★★★
