The Robert Mello Studio

Our newest audition coach!

We love supporting our students and we love it when you do too!  
 
The Writers Circle is a great group of actors and writers and creator founded by alums Gabby Fenimore and Cat Espinoza. It is a weekly gathering for writers and creators to share and workshop original work. All forms are welcome — songs, scripts, poetry, prose. The focus is craft: refining what you’ve made through structured feedback from fellow writers who take the work seriously.  
 
Above all, it’s a community built around a shared commitment to the written word. 
 
Come on out and support THIS Saturday. Tickets sold at the door.

Just sayin’

🩷🍾🎉We are thrilled that Kate Bone has joined RMS/ATL-C as a new movement instructor for the advanced intensive! (Don’t despair, Collin Pennel is still with us, just taking a break.) 
 
Kate’s work is truly unique. She is a certified yoga and meditation instructor and the creator of The Artist Body, a movement modality she built from years of study across Feldenkrais Awareness Through Movement, the Alexander Technique, Bartenieff Fundamentals, Somatic Dance Therapy, Linklater Voice, and Continuum Movement. We absolutely love that she didn’t just borrow a system - but has built her own and her unique voice is a great fit for the studio.  
 
Her training runs deep: a BA from UCLA’s School of Theatre Film and Television, advanced work at The Groundlings, and graduation from the 2-Year Meisner Conservatory at Baron Brown Studio. In 2020 she founded wonderwell creative to help artists make original work and live with intention. 
 
She’s also a working actress. You’ve probably seen her in “Purple Hearts” on Netflix or the festival favorite “The Nowhere Inn” (Sundance, Tribeca, SXSW). High-profile TV work too, opposite some serious company:  
David Boreanz, Jessica Alba, Gabrielle Union, Adam Divine, and more.

“Goodbye now, you fabulous creatures, each and everyone. And I bless you: MORE LIFE. The great work begins.”* 
 
𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬, 𝐒𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐝𝐮𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐬!  
 
One year. These actors showed up, worked hard and grew in bravery, creativity and both as actors and artists. Most importantly, they didn’t quit. Definitely worth a shout out and some celebration! 
 
It was a beautiful last class, filled with traditions, tears, a hug or two and wonderful acting. We couldn’t be any more prouder of you all!  
 
Btw, we are currently accepting applications for an upcoming DAYTIME INTENSIVE. Link in profile!

The program moves through three progressive blocks: foundational technique, emotional preparation, and on and off camera scene work.  
 
The training is rigorous and the expectations are high.  
 
Graduates leave with a repeatable technique that holds up on a self-tape at midnight and on a stage in front of four hundred people. 
 
We’re proud our actors have booked on nearly every major TV and film project shooting in Atlanta! They work in L.A. and New York. They’ve appeared on Broadway and off-Broadway. The track record speaks for itself. 
 
Classes begin May 11.

This is not a casual class. This is rigorous, demanding, professional-level training rooted in the technique of legendary acting teacher Sanford Meisner — the same caliber of work top actors in Los Angeles, New York, and Chicago are doing right now.

Here's what that means for you:

◾ You'll strip away layers and reveal the deeper actor-the one who makes strong, organic, and imaginative choices.
◾ With dedication and hard work, you'll leave with a set of tools and skills that will serve your entire career.
◾ You'll be challenged like never before-and gain real confidence.

This is not an easy program. It demands discipline, courage, and a willingness to keep going when things get uncomfortable. 
 
And you did exactly that. Not to mention being one of the few ensembles where no one quit and no one was asked to leave.  😁
 
You truly were a memorable ensemble, and you will be seriously missed.  
 
But this is not the finish line. 
It’s a sending-off. 
A blessing and a beginning.  
  
The great work begins now. 
Go live more life. 
Then come back and bring it with you.

𝐎𝐅𝐅 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐏𝐀𝐆𝐄 𝐫𝐞𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐧𝐬! One rehearsal. One performance - all on the same day!

No safety net. No second chances, just a compelling script in hand and off the page performance!

This edition: JOB by Max Wolf Friedlich performed by 𝐄𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐲 𝐒𝐨𝐩𝐩𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐑𝐨𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐭 𝐌𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐨!

The New York Times called it a Critic’s Pick.
Variety called it “electrifying.”
The New Yorker called it “engrossing, disturbing, and frequently funny.”

It played two sold-out runs Off Broadway before transferring to the Helen Hayes on Broadway — and now this powerful one act comes to RMS/ATL-C for one night only.
