This will allow you to train fully with us, experience all exercises as well as discuss the culture and philosophy behind each technique.

Here is what Industry Professionals and Students say about working with us:

“ I believe Meisner is an essential tool to help create truthful and nuanced performances. Seb Blanc is an inspirational teacher - his extensive experience and knowledge of the Meisner technique will really help any actor who wants to develop and enhance their craft. Watching him work with actors is a joy.” - says Director John Strickland ( "The Rig", "The Flight Attendant", "Strike Back", "Line of Duty", "Bodyguard", "Troy", "Three Musketeers", "Mr Selfridge" )

“ I’ve been working with Caroline, The Actors Craft for most of the last five years and I can honestly say that I wouldn't be where I am today if it wasn't for her generosity, her kindness, her genius. Her compassion, her keen eye for detail and her ability to really bring out the best in all of her students. I just think she's remarkable. I think I've grown so much as a performer with her. She really helped my hand through the filming of Cleopatra through the casting process leading up to when I got the job, and then through the filming and beyond, and she's just magnificent and the school is magnificent. I have had a lot of interaction with Seb as well who teaches Meisner there and even though I don't train in Meisner, I trust and believe in his work, so so so absolutely. He's an incredible director and a phenomenal teacher and I endorse everything that they do at The Actors Craft and I just feel so blessed to have had the time to work with them and to still be a student of theirs. ” -says current student Adele James ("Casualty", "The Importance of Being Earnest", "Queen Cleopatra").

"Redefined what Acting was for me... Seb and Caroline are magical, practical, tough and passionate...it's opening up every morsel of my artistic force and I can't wait to continue training with them." - says current student Sanee Raval. (Cold Feet, I May Destroy You, Exodus).

"Training with Sebastian Blanc has been a life defining decision. The attention, support and dedication he gives every student is inspiring, and sometimes the only things that got me through the most confronting aspects of the technique. He leads you to the edge of your potential and tells you to jump. He won’t promise to catch you, he makes you believe you will fly." - says current student Dian Cathall ("Avenue Q", "Generation Why", " Promises of Grief" )
