Tool Shop

PRE-REQUISITE: Consultation with John

Every actor’s life experience is different, and Tool Shop is where actors and teachers work together to discover which tools best enhance and aid with the actor’s process.

This three week, bootcamp style intensive will introduce the JRS philosophy and provide you with the foundation needed to thrive in our monthly Ongoing Classes. During this three weeks, we work on multiple genres, including Multi-Camera Comedy, Single Camera Comedy, One Hour Drama and more.

Each character exists to serve the story and your job as an actor is to tell that story while bringing your unique voice and perspective to the work – a voice that is both informed and truthful.  Tool Shop is where we impart that knowledge to you.

While many of our Ongoing Classes are in-person, we have kept Tool Shop held on Zoom. Not only do we still have students from all over the country joining us, but Zoom is where callbacks are still being held and we want to arm you with as many tools as possible TO BOOK THE JOB!

If none of the current offerings of Tool Shop work with your schedule, we offer one-on-one or small group Tool Shops both in-person and on Zoom. **Times to be arranged with Office** 

*A Group Consultation is required prior to taking Tool Shop. Tool Shop is mandatory before enrolling in Practicum or Ongoing Classes (It is not mandatory for Audition Camp).
