Here are some comments from earlier workshop
participants:
 
Marcy,
I want to thank you for the excellent class today on
How to Audition for Television Commercials.  It was helpful from the first minute all the way through. I appreciate your attention to detail and your gentle encouragement to get more out of the actors.  You provided very helpful information about the mechanics of auditioning, but also brought me to a new comfort level with the whole process. I feel inspired to pursue a relationship with an agent and begin auditioning for commercial work.  Thank you for the time and effort you and your staff put into this class.  I intend to see you again before long!  Ron Dauphin

Dear Marcy,  
I just want to thank you for your invaluable and
constructive criticisms, at the audition workshop. The
expertise that you bring to the table will help me, as
I continue to diligently work on my craft. I understand
How much of a challenge it is, to have success, even on a small level in this industry. But, with professionals like yourself sharing your knowledge and insight, it makes it a little less intimidating. Hopefully you will continue to have sessions like these throughout the year, as it will help us "aspiring actors/ actresses" to become better equipped to make it.  Thank you again for your time and service, Sincerely, Evelyn Stewart
