Hello!

Welcome to the Elizabeth Mestnik Acting Studio. Our mission at EMAS is to empower our actors with a strong foundation in technique and a discipline that will last a lifetime. We are here to offer you more than an acting class; we are here to help you develop a comprehensive set of “acting tools” that will support you as you pursue your career. We have an amazing community of actors, directors, writers, and filmmakers who will support your dreams, push you to achieve your potential and revel in your achievements.

There are classes for actors at any stage of their career. So if this is your dream, it will take an investment of time, energy, and passion to pursue it. If you are ready to make that commitment – EMAS is ready to invest in you.

EVERYBODY’S TALKING ABOUT EMAS

Meisner Technique

The Meisner Technique is widely recognized as one of the most effective acting techniques taught today. it gives actors the building blocks to become emotionally alive actors of depth, imagination, and truth. The great strength of Meisner Training is that it is a clear, step-by-step approach to the craft of acting. It develops complete freedom of expression and confidence in your abilities. The EMAS Meisner Technique is a traditional Meisner program, not a hybrid. We follow the syllabus that Sandy Meisner developed & William Esper refined.

Scene Study

Scene Study is that weekly workout for actors to make sure they are ready when the opportunity arrives. You’ve already trained – now you need to harness those skills to your performance – to every performance!

In the film and television industry, even working actors rarely get to live through an entire scene. Until an actor is at the top of their profession, acting opportunities consist of small vignettes. We all want the opportunity to sink our teeth into a meaty character or a dynamic conflict. After all, that’s why we’re actors.
