All work is filmed on personal SD cards or recorded on Zoom and then sent individually to each actor who desires it. Actors have found that studying with Miriam for over a year or two builds their technique and forces them to take risks more effectively than going from teacher to teacher. Because of the depth of training offered, working with Miriam leads to a highly skilled and intuitive acting style in theatre, television, and film. Actors need to gain the freedom, the information, and the knowledge to explore the many choices available to them in order to become better actors as a result. Miriam’s classes are held in a downtown studio in Toronto or online if in-person isn’t possible. Actors new to class work on a monologue and then reading and audition and then might work on scene-study skills. Returning actors choose to work on short prepared scenes, monologues, long-term scene study, cold reads and ‘off-book’ audition techniques.
