Award-winning Playhouse Northwest Acting School has now opened registration for the 2020 Meisner Classes. (Fall Quarter)     

Both Online and In-person Classes are now available. 

Register here: playhousenw.com/meisnerregistration/

The structured Meisner classes are the backbone of what we do. These classes are designed to be taken in sequence, each level lasting nine weeks. At each level, on-camera, improvisational, and business skills will be interwoven into the curriculum.

If you’re serious about transforming your acting, this is the place to start. For professional actors in film and television, it’s no secret that Meisner work is their superpower in both their life and their career. The benefits include a greater sense of truth, emotional depth, and flexibility in your work.

Beginners and experienced students are welcome. Outside practice is required. Students will work individually at their own level and will grow at their own rate.

On-Line Classes will run Thursday, October 8th, and run through Dec. 3rd.
