“I am and will always be in debt to The Rogues Actor’s Studio.
After moving here from Regina and taking classes at the studio, it quickly became a home and a safe haven for me to explore the craft of acting. Not only the acting though, over the past two years that I studied there I have grown more as a person; mentally, emotionally and spiritually than I ever have in my entire life. Both Joe and Christianne have instilled in me a respect for the craft and a work ethic that has helped me reach my goals in the professional world. The passionthey bring to the studio every day is inspiring and the tools they pass on through their teaching is what I truly believe are the essentials to real, potent, honest, stimulating acting. Their approach is pure; devoid of any of the tricks or superficial techniques that plague our craft.They believe in the importance of the role of the actor in today’s society and they promote the art as not only an art, but as a way of life, an attitude, an ethos.
I truly believe that the Studio helped me to discover my true self and to realize my true aspirations in life.”
