Coaching for young Dallas actors
We coach performers aged 7 to 17 in one-to-one sessions. A parent or guardian is always in the building, and in the room or an adjacent room depending on the child's age and preference. Session material is agreed with the parent in advance.
All coaches working with Dallas minors hold a current Department of Family and Protective Services background check, issued by the Texas DFPS. Documentation is sighted by us before the first session with a minor, and by you on request.
Coaching for Dallas-based adult actors
For adult actors at every stage: pre-representation, signed but underworked, mid-career, and working actors preparing for specific high-stakes auditions. If you have a callback next Friday, we work the callback. If you are preparing a self-tape in 24 hours, we work the self-tape.
Material reflects the casting pipeline in Dallas. Accent work is available when the role demands it.
