About Geoffrey

Taught by veteran actor and coach Geoffrey Cantor, whose work includes films such as The Coen Brothers' Hail, Caesar!, The Longest Week, Man on a Ledge, Fair Game, Michael Mann's Public Enemies and who can be seen in the role of Ellison in Marvel's Daredevil and The Punisher on Netflix, The ACTORS’ WORKSHOP TM focuses on process. His unique text-based approach focuses on process over product or result. Regarless of age or experience, Geoffrey provides his students with a strong foundation for any style or medium.

A magna cum laude graduate from Amherst College with a degree in theater, he also attended the National Theater Institute (Eugene O’Neill Theater Center in Conn), and continued his training at the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama, in London, England.

He has been teaching for over 25 years throughout the country including Virginia, New Orleans, New York City and the Eugene O’Neill Theater Center (NYTI) in Connecticut. Geoffrey was also the Artistic Director and Artist in Residence for the JCC Association’s Maccabi Artsfest, an international youth arts festival.

Teaching offers the opportunity to fully live in the middle of what drew me to this artform in the first place. The journey of discovery is where the joy is for me, and when that journey is shared, it is even more fulfilling. So what better than to travel with a student on that journey.

I am an actor, and have a huge range of professional experience across the spectrum -- from print modeling to broadway, industrials and commericals to major films and TV series. A product of training, both here and in the UK, I apply what I've learned to my teaching. My three years as a social worker also gives me additional and unique insight into behavior and thought - the mind of the character.

About the lesson

  • All Levels
  • English

All languages in which the lesson is available :

English

All of my work is text based. I use the script as the doorway or window into behavior, intention, and the specifics of the character. This kind of process-based work is aplicable to all mediums. That said, every actor or acting student is different, and I ask for at least one monologue to start so that I can better understand his/her own approach to the work and determine a path or course that suits that student specifically. 



No teacher can or should promise paying gigs or huge successful careers. But all teachers should be able to raise the level of the actual work for all their students, and guide them as they develop an individualized approach.
