<DIV><BR> <FONT size=4 face="comic sans ms">"Simply the best. If I had only three words to describe The Houdeschoolofacting, I'll choose those three. Two words? Top Notch. One word? Great. If I couldn't say a word? I would cheese. I went to the school looking for something specific in my acting and definitely found it here. I was</FONT> <FONT size=4 face="comic sans ms">looking for that <SPAN id=lw_1274213720_0 class=yshortcuts>moment to moment</SPAN> listen and respond key aspect that so many actors lack here locally in Cleveland. That real emotion, true interaction, and genuine truth can also be your new discovery within acting. I couldn't and wouldn't recommend any other school or place to</FONT> <FONT size=4 face="comic sans ms">study for acting here in <SPAN id=lw_1274213720_1 class=yshortcuts>Cleveland</SPAN>. Aside from what you can actually attain from studying here (emotional prep, understanding</FONT> <FONT size=4 face="comic sans
ms">and interpreting scripts, moment to moment acting, trust and truth) and the list can go on, you also get a great, warm and friendly atmosphere. Not only from Jessica but the rest of the students as well. I remember <SPAN id=lw_1274213720_2 class=yshortcuts>Jack Nicholson</SPAN> stating "you cant handle the truth" I believe</FONT> <FONT size=4 face="comic sans ms">I handled it quite well, how will you handle it?"</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=4>"The Houde School of Acting has become a second home for me. Jessica has done so much for me I can not thank her enough. Not only has her teaching given me the tools I need to become a great actress, but also to become a success in any</FONT> <FONT size=4>field I pursue. This class has helped me find myself. I have gained so much confidence, and, friends. I have learned to</FONT> <FONT size=4>take risks and make strong choices, not only in my acting, but my life.

<DIV id=yiv2019942565><FONT size=3>"I started taking classes to further my acting abilities because I'm constantly working on <SPAN style="BORDER-BOTTOM: medium none; BACKGROUND: none transparent scroll repeat 0% 0%" id=lw_1252598827_8 class=yshortcuts>independent films</SPAN> around here with groups like Big Jones Productions, Little Beth, Two Martinis, One Star, VMCAD, commercials with Talent Group clients, and occasionally theatre at Bang and Clatter. I'm an ad account manager/business owner by day so things like measurable/tangible results are important to me without really knowing what classes would do in such a subjective medium as acting, but after reading that all the working actors in LA are constantly in class when not working even though many are already great (but want to keep their skills sharp), I decided to do it anyway. <BR><BR>Well, I'm quite happy to say that based on the fact that I've been able to see most of the
films I worked on before I started classes, several I made right when I started class and was learning the <SPAN style="BORDER-BOTTOM: rgb(0,102,204) 1px dashed" id=lw_1252598827_9 class=yshortcuts>Meisner technique</SPAN>, and then those that I've recently worked on after about 10 months in class, I do indeed have the tangible results I was looking for/wasn't sure I'd see and I (and others) can literally see myself having improved over the last year, with a definite exponential growth in ability in the past 5 months or so. If you're an actor around here that's also always working on films (and I know quite a few of you), I'd sincerely suggest you come check out the school and literally SEE the results for yourself; I've been told they're impressive." <BR><BR>Mike Goulis <BR><BR></FONT></DIV><FONT size=3>

Students go through a series of improv exercises that are designed to teach
them how to work off their partner, stay in the moment and out of their head. Along with Meisner's improv exercises, students work on monologues, audition technique and emotional preparation to expand their craft. This class is opened to beginner to advanced student as we find combining all actors in one class offers confidence, inspiration and a good way for students to share their take on the Meisner technique and the Cleveland acting scene.</FONT></SPAN></FONT></FONT></SPAN><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: times new roman, new york, times, serif; FONT-WEIGHT: bold"><FONT size=5><FONT size=4><SPAN style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"><SPAN style="TEXT-DECORATION: underline"></SPAN></SPAN></FONT></FONT></SPAN><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: times new roman, new york, times, serif"></SPAN><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: times new roman, new york, times, serif"><FONT style="FONT-FAMILY: times new roman, new york, times, serif" size=5><FONT size=4><FONT size=3><SPAN
