How To Get Out Of Your Own Way and Book the Job

This FREE Online Acting Master Class gives you first hand experience of the way coach Tom Todoroff coaches and directs actors.  You will observe how this powerful work renders overwhelming and immediate transformations!

In this class, instruction is done by way of demonstration. So attendees may volunteer to perform a 1-2 minute monologue and receive personalized coaching in front of the group!

Attendees are also welcome to observe only, if preferred!

This class is for you if you want to…

• Feel relaxed, grounded and confident walking into every audition?
• Discover a technique for crafting compelling performances with any script – even with NO time to prepare?
• Expand your vocal range?
• Trust your own point of view (stop second-guessing yourself)!
• Develop authority of speech?
• Find danger in your work?
• Act at the speed of life?
• Re-ignite your imagination and love for this craft?

What to prepare:

If you would like to work with Tom 1:1 during the master class, please include the following information in your registration:

• Title and Author of your 1-2 minute monologue 
• Your HOLA Profile: which has to be updated with: Headshot and Actor Resume.

In the interest of time and fairness, names will be pulled from a ‘hat’ to determine who will perform during the class – Tom will work with as many actors as time allows!  If you request to perform, please be off-book and ready to go if called upon!

Note: JOIN US LIVE ONLINE to experience this Master Class – no recording will be shared afterwards!  You’ve got to be there to experience it!
