See some industry guest testimonials:

"As a Casting Director in NYC, I have been working with Actors Connection for a number of years. They have a great facility which accommodates both the actors and the industry to its highest standards. I have met many actors there and continue to bring them in for casting sessions - some of which have already booked! They offer a variety of ways to work and showcase with today's most prominent offices including the one-on-one meet and greets as well as multiple ongoing classes focusing on different mediums of the industry. Additionally, they have an amazing, warm staff and great talent to boot which always makes for a wonderful experience at Actors Connection."

- Stacy Seidel, Casting Director, Broadcasters

"I always enjoy my seminars at Actor's Connection. I find it a great way to meet potential talent. I can honestly say that the level of talent that Actor's Connection showcases has always been of the highest caliber. The structure of the seminars is a brilliant way for an actor to show themselves off. I always come away with an abundance of potential clients that I can then work on getting out on as many commercial projects as possible. I have had the pleasure of booking talent on national and regional commercials. It is always a thrill to inform a talent that I have met at a seminar that they have 'booked'."

- David McDermott, Agent, Jordan, Gill and Dornbaum

"I have been attending showcases at Actors Connection for many years and have had nothing but positive experiences each and every time. The level of talent is outstanding and I have signed many actors in the past several years. Many of those have gone on to book Broadway shows, National Tours, TV and Commercial spots. The staff is very professional and accommodating and make each and every visit an absolute pleasure."

- Craig Holzberg, Agent/Owner, Avalon Artists Group

  • Animation Voice Over Intensive with Jen Rudin

    Anonymous • April 8, 2025
    Jen was fantastic, I just wish the class was either smaller in size or longer in time. We all were asked to prepare 2 sides but only got to work on one, unfortunately.

    Jen knows her stuff, obviously, after years of experience in the business. She’s direct, no-nonsense, yet very encouraging, and supportive. Highly recommended!
  • 2-Week TV/Film with Allison Kirschner

    Keelin M. • August 16, 2024
    It's clear Allison likes actors. She was collaborative with each & every participant. And she radiates easy joy. She's a perfect person to help actors in this format, and I hope I have the luck to see her again--in a professional capacity.

  • Level 2 Advanced Animation Voice-Over - 3 Week Class Plus "Bonus Session" with Darren Dunstan

    Addison F. • March 20, 2024
    Darren is a phenomenal teacher. Every professional voice actor I have worked with has sang his praises and it is extremely easy to see why. He goes above and beyond and really knows how to speak to all different types of personalities. I have no idea how he even finds the time to do this because this guy is ALWAYS working! Pay attention when he is working with others in your group because sometimes it's easier to hear exactly what he's talking about when you're not focusing on your own script. I went old school analogue and brought a pen and paper and by the end of the three weeks I had a lot of solid info I used on auditions. Believe it or not, I have been doing extremely well since course. If you think you've finally learned it all, you haven't. Check out Darren you won't regret it!
