"ACTING IS THE ABILITY TO BE PRIVATE IN PUBLIC"

***STUDENT ACCOLADES***
You just might want to take his class! Here is what some of his past and present students have to say!

"McGregor is a knowledgeable, hard working and perceptive acting teacher. He will instruct you and also challenge you,...helping to access the emotional plane to drive the character. He knows his stuff and has the ability to pass it on to all levels of student." --Val Uff

"When I first started Ken's acting class, I knew nothing of the art. He starts with the basics and works up. If you work hard and dedicate yourself to the art, he will do anything to help you. He took me places I didn't think I could get to. I will use the tools I learned from Ken throughout my career. I highly recommend him." --Dave Shaver

"Definitely learning and also professionally learning. He doesn't cut me any slack. He helps me to stay motivated in the process of becoming a well-rounded working Actor and I've referred him to several in this industry. I'm honored to be his student." -- Thurmond Allen Jr.

"Kenneth John McGregor. All methods of acting, An extremely intense class taught by an extremely talented actor and teacher. Kenneth McGregor was taught extensively by Ms. Shelly Winters and has the innate ability to teach his acting students to reach deeply within, using many of the most well known techniques such as Meisner, Stanislavski, and his own unique talent. I am blessed to have been taught by this man." --Janice LaFlam

"McGregor knows how to push the envelope so that no matter where you are as an actor, working with him will bring you to a higher level. It is one thing to get great insight from a teacher, it is another to actually get to where you need to be. McGregor has the skill, experience and patience to get you there." --Hilary Kayle Crist

"McGregor truly knows the full art of storytelling. He teaches all ranges of people. From him you will learn priceless and vital knowledge on what it takes to be an actor. Not only an actor but an actor that will stand out from the crowd. He will teach you how to be skilled as an actor. I am scoring leading roles consistently in both Film and Theatre and my range has expanded enormously." --Victoria Gates

"I've been taking Ken's class at The Walking Fish Theater in Philly since last Oct. I have learned enormously and have definitely grown as an Actor. Since then I have been getting constant work. I would recommend taking Ken's class to whomever is wanting a career as an Actor." -- Joe Barlam
