My confidence was boosted and my resume looks like it's supposed to..I would definitely recommend taking her class!" ~ Jessica Balts, TC Actress, Monologue & the Audition Class Alumnus.

Monologue & the Audition Class is Based in
Robert Lewis' Script Analysis.
Along with Meisner, Adler and Strasberg, Robert Lewis was a master teacher who came from The Group Theatre. He also headed the Yale Drama Department during which time Meryl Streep, Marlon Brando, and many other greats studied with him. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Lewis Sandra had the good fortune to study directly with "Bobby" while living and working in NYC. (To Sandra's knowledge, she is the only coach in LA & MPLS teaching pure Robert Lewis' Script Analysis Technique.)

"You can tell Sandra's actors are very well trained." ~ Laura Tucci, Casting Director, Paramount Television, L.A.

Every actor needs a repertoire of monologues. Why? Because monologues are used to show: directors/agents/managers, casting directors and producers, a sample of your work.
Don't be fooled into thinking that monologues are only used in theatre auditions. A real life example: One of our L.A. performances that I directed and produced found some Industry unable to attend. Yet actors were getting called in off their headshots. This happened to Jessica. An agent asked her to his office to do a couple of monologues. Luckily, she was prepared. She WOWed the agent, and he asked to represent her. Plus he wanted her to come in and perform a new monologue each month, to keep her chops up....and this is just ONE example.
I have a card hanging on the wall in my office that reads: "Luck is being prepared for opportunity when it comes." Jessica wasn't lucky, she was prepared. Are you?

GET MORE CONFIDENT.

QUOTES:
"As an actor, one of the most difficult parts of auditioning for me is finding the right monologue and feeling confident when I perform it for the first time. I found myself not going to auditions simply because I didn't have any new material. Sandra's monologue class was of great help to me. After working up 2 strong contrasting pieces, I wanted to go out and use them - and I did. I now have 2 shows lined up back to back at the 4th Street Theater and at the Jungle. I credit Sandra with helping me get them." ~ Mikki Daniels, TC Actress, TPS Alumnus.
"Sandra's students perform with such honesty. This honesty is not only important to stage, but vital for the camera. ~ Jean Rohn, Former Casting Director for ALL MY CHILDREN. Owner of JR Casting.
"I highly recommend Sandra's classes...." ~ Barbara Shelton, Casting Director, Owner of Bab's Casting.
"I had been acting for over 30 years and considered myself a very good actor, but I took Sandra Horner's advanced class in order to become "consistently excellent." Within months of taking Sandra's class I won a "Best Performer" award at a state-wide competition and shortly after that was awarded the "Best Actor" for a theatre's entire season. Acting isn't about winning awards or collecting trophies (even Oscars), but it's affirming to have good work acknowledged and appreciated...I now work more as a Casting Director than an actor and I love auditioning actors who have taken Sandra's classes because I know they're serious and committed to their craft." ~ Matthew Feeney, Casting Director, Walden Entertainment. TPS Alumnus.
