I have done all of the above Aaron Marcus . Some experiences were better than others. I agree with all you said. And audit, audit, audit. Always audit.

Yes, I agree. I always suggest that people ask to audit a class. Some will allow people to sit in, others won't, but asking is always an essential question. Thank you so much for sharing.

Hi Aaron, I was very lucky to train with a theatre acrtess, who took me under her wing and prepared me for drama college to give me a head start. I loved my time at drama college and learned a lot.

Sounds like you had a wonderful experience and learned so much at your college. I am curious, was the focus on theater only or was auditioning for film and TV also taught? Thank you so much for sharing.
