PRODUCER / DIRECTOR TESTIMONIALS


	"Anthony, You and your class are amazing!" Kiwi Smith Writer - House Bunny, Legally Blonde, 10 Things I Hate About You Producer - Whip It!, Virgin on Bourbon Street and The Ugly Truth

	"Tony clearly cultivates close, trusting relationships with his students. Like Tony himself, they possess a passion for and dedication to the craft of acting. Their eagerness to learn is evident, which made it a joy to guest direct Tony's master class. I see great success for this talented group." Michael Sucsy Writer/Director/Producer - HBO's Grey Gardens

	"Few acting classes have impressed me as much as Anthony Meindl’s Actors Workshop. I was lucky enough to catch a Showcase with many of the actors and I was blown away by the quality of work they were doing. Then I was given the opportunity to sit in and watch their scene work and again I found myself enraptured by the sheer amount of talented people endeavoring to better improve their craft. I have told everyone that I can to run, don’t walk, but try not to trip and fall because who needs that aggravation, on your way to try to get into one of Anthony Meindl’s Actor’s Workshops. If my last name was Zagat, I would give it five stars!" Andy Fickman Director of YOU AGAIN, RACE TO WITCH MOUNTAIN, THE GAME PLAN, SHE’S THE MAN, REEFER MADNESS.

	"If Tony's actors are indicative of the next great movement in acting -- then Tony's really onto something incredible." Josh Berman Writer/Producer - CSI, Bones, and Vanished

	"I wish all of the actors I work with in television studied with Tony." Bob Koherr TV Sitcom and Episodic Director of Weeds, Cold Case, Wizards of Waverly Place, Still Standing, The Drew Carey Show, The George Lopez Show and It's All Relative

	"As both a Vispassana meditator and former student of Sanford Meisner, I am excited and inspired by Anthony Meindl's synthesis of spiritual awareness and the art of real acting....You will fins yourself enriched, both as an artist and -- more importantly -- as a human being." Duane Clark Director - Crusoe, CSI: New York, Medium, CSI: Miami and One Tree Hill Son of Dick Clark

	"...it's time for the acting world to re-examine new possibilities for the art form that are set forth by Mr. Meindl." Jason Clodfelter Vice President of Drama Development - Sony Pictures Television

	"Acting should never have been called 'acting.' This is where the craft went wrong. It's misleading to those well-intentioned types who set out to do it well. Because it's not about 'acting.' It's about being. Being the person who's tortured be killing his uncle to revenge his father's death, being the woman who boils a rabbit to terrify her lover's wife, being the bride who leaves her groom at the altar -- the overused catalyst to most sitcom pilots. How often have you watched a movie, a play or television show and yearned to scream out, 'Please, for the love of all things pure, stop ACTING!' This is where Tony's work hits the nail on the head. He helps actors find the truth within each moment, as they would perceive it, as they would live it, as they would be in it - without all the unnecessary acting. He encourages the organic, the ability to inhabit a character from within rather than from what one might suppose the writer intended. And this is where surprises are found, where true character is born, where big fat contracts are won. Listen to Tony. He makes good actors." Abraham Higginbotham Writer/Producer - Do Not Disturb, Back To You, Arrested Development, Will & Grace

	"I've had the opportunity of leading Anthony's workshops a number of times. I found the students disciplined, at a higher level than most in this city, receptive to new ideas, a ton of fun and, more importantly, left with a sincere, professional belief that many will carve out serious careers as actors. My greatest compliment -- I would teach a class any time." Harris Goldberg Writer - Without a Paddle, The Mater of Disguise, Les Boys, Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo Director - The Master of Disguise, Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo

	"Anthony Meindl is truly inspiring! His passionate and uncompromising quest for honesty elicits unique, witty and deeply moving performances from his talented actors. Anthony has the ability to spot and draw out the best from every human being." Claire Kilner Director - American Virgin, The Wedding Date, How to Deal and Janice Beard
