I haven't done something like this since I was in the 8th grade and it was So Much Fun to be on the stage again! Director/Music Director Liz Muller has done such an amazing job and it was so awesome to meet her! Keep your eyes on her! She is a total rising star. As are the talented cast and crew! The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee is a musical comedy with music and lyrics by William Finn, with a book written by Rachel Sheinkin, conceived by Rebecca Feldman with additional material by Jay Reiss. The show centers on a fictional spelling bee set in a geographically ambiguous Putnam Valley Middle School. The theater was awesome setup with tables, cabaret style. You can bring in outside food and drink and it was so fun and entertaining all while having dinner. Can't wait for the next show there!

I had a couple of conversations with this company. Reno gave me some great advice and he is very…read moreinsightful. However, there was another conversation we had where he lost his patience with me, and I felt he was very verbally abusive and extremely manipulative. I've also find this concerning because I know someone who was a student of his who has the same type of manipulating and picking and choosing who he's going to respect and disrespect as a film Director, so I think it's important to recognize that Reno may or may not be teaching some verbally abusive behavior. In my experience, he's too much of a hothead, he was trying to psychoanalyze me to hurt my feelings and I felt like if I worked with him it would be an experience where he would give me a lot of toxicity. I'm happy that he ended up refusing to let me take one of his classes that I was excited to take, because easily I would've avoided a very bad and abusive experience. Please stop picking and choosing who you're going to respect and disrespect.

This review is long overdue! I have been studying at the Actors Gym for over three years now. I…read morecame to the acting game rather late in life, but Reno has allowed me to realize that acting, writing, and directing is what was missing in my life. His instruction is as minimal as it is profound. That is to say, he knows just how to get a student to struggle with the techniques before offering a tiny suggestion which serves as a leverage point for the actor to have a personal insight. Often these interventions come in the form of a simple question that compels his student to do that which is fundamental to acting, make a choice. Whether you are a beginning actor or a seasoned one, Reno and the talent he attracts will provide for you a dangerous yet nurturing place to grow in your craft.

I especially love how flexible the membership is, you can come in and work around your own schedule, which is so convenient. They have all the tools, wheels, and equipment you need, and you really only have to purchase your clay, which is very reasonably priced. They also fire the kilns regularly, which is a huge plus. Just a really welcoming, relaxed place to create and enjoy pottery. So happy I found it!

I have been a member of The Studio for over 3 years and it's become such a big part of my life. Christine, Priscilla and all of the instructors are always so willing to help and answer my questions regarding anything clay and glazing. It really is such a warm and welcoming place to come and be creative. Pottery was new to me when I first started and I have really grown as a ceramist over my 3+ years coming here and I really enjoy creating pieces to give to my friends and family. It truly is a special place and one of the added bonuses is that I have made some life long friends. I am very grateful to belong to such a special community.

The Fairfield school is closer to me but they never responded to any of my calls or emails. Milford responded right away. They were very friendly and professional with a good sense of fun and enjoyment of what they do. Bear in mind that they don't like to offer any criticism even though it may be constructive. This is because they don't make any money by discouraging students no matter how untalented they may be. Personally, I welcome correction because it leads to improvement. The teachers com from a variety of backgrounds. My teacher was a graduate of a college level music program and he really knew his stuff!
