Terry Knickerbocker Studio

As you know, great acting isn’t about luck—it’s about skill, training, and a commitment to true artistic growth. At Terry Knickerbocker Studio, our training is designed for actors who are serious about their careers and ready to invest in their talent.

DOES THIS SOUND LIKE YOU? 

• Are you taking countless workshops with no real growth?
• Do you want to reach a higher level in your craft, but aren’t sure how?
• Are you struggling to break into the industry, land an agent, or get auditions?

Our training gives students a clear, reliable process for truthful acting—one they can use consistently, regardless of circumstances. You’ll gain confidence, skill, and the ability to pick up any script and bring it to life authentically.

WHAT YOU’LL LEARN 

Our training follows the Meisner Technique, a structured approach to developing deep emotional authenticity in every performance. This program will give you the tools to: 

• Train in a rigorous, supportive environment that nurtures talent and builds confidence.
• Be fully present and truthful on stage and screen, instinctively bringing any script to life with depth and clarity.
• Unlock your full emotional range and strengthen your connection to imaginary circumstances.

A WORD FROM SUMMER INTENSIVE PARTICIPANTS

“I think it was probably the most amount of acting training and personal growth I could have gotten out of a 6 week intensive. I am so grateful and impressed.”

“I’ve already recommended it to a few people because of the transformation that I’ve seen in myself over the course. It’s been brilliant for understanding my emotions, thoughts and speaking my truth. It’s good for the soul and my health. To have productive conversations, be willing to listen deeply and respond truthfully.”

“In a short space of time we covered repetition, activities and scene work in a way that made sense and also linked to acting at large, it was a great foundational course that still had depth and didn’t feel ‘beginner’.”
