About Studio and Online Foundations

Studio Class: Saturdays 10am-12pm or Thursdays 6:30pm-8:30pm.

Time to drop the mask! Together we practice learning to be open, fluid and authentic. It's a lot to ask, isn't it? All those years we've spent building up our covers and developing our shields? Join this actor's instrument class to whittle away and eventually drop them all. Studio classes incorporate both Meisner technique and Theatrical Improvisation to facilitate this amazing goal of authenticity. Studio classes are 120 minutes. Zoom classes are 90 minutes. Studio Location: 20-211 Columbia Street, Vancouver, BC.

Instructor

Founder and Instructor Michelle Meyrink

I founded Actorium with the purpose of creating an environment where people can discover and immerse themselves in the art of acting; a place to grow and develop creatively through this beautiful, fun, interesting, and life-changing art form. I think of Actorium as a place for people to inspire and to get inspired and grow, not only as an actor but personally – as I think the two go together. It is not only an actor’s training centre but also a community with a strong culture for daring authenticity, humour, warmth, and openness. What I have learned through acting and have used as a core principle of Actorium is to never lose sight of the truthful basis of your art and the reason you started in the first place.
