Actor's Craft has purchased its own building and now houses an intimate 50-seat theater for productions of both our students and outside rentals. Since 2005, Actor's Craft has run an Acting Studio whose students have landed roles in Movies, Television Shows, Stage and Corporate Video productions, etc. Our students get work. We offer Professional On-Camera Acting Technique for Adults, Teens and Chi
ldren. We invest in the individual actor, helping you overcome your challenges and to become the best you can be. Classes will help you pinpoint what makes you unique and empower you with tools to make dynamic choices and create multi-dimensional characters. Acting Coach, Maureen Cashin Bolog brings Los Angeles caliber training to the Midwest. She is the only Acting Coach in the Great Lakes Area certified to teach The Chubbuck Technique (www.ivanachubbuck.com) which builds upon those techniques used in the past, and teaches actors how to WIN! Actors using Ivana Chubbuck's technique have been nominated for and won Oscars, Emmy's, Tony's, Golden Globes, and other international awards. Maureen also teaches The Haber Phrase Technique (www.margiehaber.com) developed by leading Audition Coach Margie Haber, which practically elimates the need for memorization and takes the fear out of cold readings. As well as studying with Ivana Chubbuck and Margie Haber, Maureen also studied with Howard Fine, Jay Goldenberg, and Lawrence Parke, among others, and has a Masters Degree in TV/Film from Northwestern and a B.A. in Theater from Columbia College. She incorporates the wealth of this information in her classes, along with the works of Uta Hagen, Michael Shurtleff, Anita Jesse, and Viola Spolin. She addresses your vocal, physical and internal work. Class sizes are small, so actors receive individual attention that addresses their specific needs. Actor's Craft does not churn out actors, we invest in the individual. Actor's Craft is located in in beautiful downtown Kenosha, Wisconsin, one-half hour south of Milwaukee and one hour north of Chicago, near the Illinois border on the shores of Lake Michigan.
