About JAMES

The Acting Studio - New York is a private acting conservatory/studio of distinction specializing in the Sanford Meisner Technique located in the heart of the theater district of New York City. The studio was created by its director James Price who has been training actors for over 38 years. It offers acting programs and classes that are uniquely designed to suit the needs of actors, directors and writers who seek careers in film, theatre and television.



The Acting Studio - New York is dedicated equally to the development of craft at the highest level through its intensive short-term and long-term classes, and conservatory programs and to the application of those skills in work presented in open-class forums, group projects and on productions presented for public performance produced in conjunction with Chelsea Repertory Company,((concealed information) an off-off Broadway company performing since 1984. The success of many of its alumni allows the studio to make claim to developing award-winning talent.



As a private acting studio, The Acting Studio - New York provides a breadth and depth of experience and exposure to professional theatre that many traditional acting schools, acting classes and academic programs simply can't match. Class size is limited, applicants are screened, and students must maintain a professional standard for advancement.



Take a look at our acting program and acting classes as well as some of the past productions of our acting company, Chelsea Repertory Company: (concealed information)

I was asked by Sanford Meisner to join the teaching staff at the Neighborhood Playhouse in NY seven years after graduating from the theatre school. I sat with him and other staff memebers as a teacher in training. I also was a protege of Suzanne Shepard for nine years.



The studio staff are all working professionals in the acting profession. Well-educated, well-trained and experienced in their respective subjects. Chosen as "One of the Best Acting Schools in NYC." by Time Out NY Magazine.

Students can apply online at (concealed information) for a variety of classes. Some classes only require registration. But please note that all acting classes require a private interview with the studio director before admission.

The studio welcomes beginners, but previous experience while not necessary for some classes, it will be required for others.



I have worked with complete beginners who have gone on to achieve award-winning celebrity status, and I have worked with actors of celebrity status who have come to the studio to retrain with me and the studio staff.



I would avoid classes that offer a "quick-fix" to actor training. It takes time to develop oneself as a capable instrument of acting and to hone ones skills in the craft. Also, be cautious of teachers who allow acting students to sign up without any proper screening process. And lastly, avoid teachers who teach solo in some isolated location without being subjected to any check or balance or oversight system.



Our in-house, resident theatre company just presented PENTECOST a play by David Edgars and used twenty actors all trained at the studio. We offer this theatre company and its respective LABS to our current students and studio alumni at no cost, to help them continue to grow as performing artists.



A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
For beginners, why do you think you want to act, and why didn't you start earlier? For those with some experience, in what areas do you lack confidence and/or where to you need more development? What is your weakness and what is your strength as an actor?
