Chicago Self-Taped Auditions
What better way to welcome Fall than to have Jennifer Dymit back in the studio?
Between an audition taping with Jennifer and me finding out my Patronus is a mink, I have to say it's been a pretty stellar day. Thanks, Jennifer and J.K. Rowling!
There have been some fun sessions in the studio these past few days, and I've met lots of new actors! I'm about to meet more with the events that are coming up: this weekend is the September Teen Coaching and Virtual Showcase at The Second City - an excellent way to be seen by more than 200 industry professionals. The following week is the Virtual Showcase for adults (no coaching class with this one, but you can book a private coaching if desired). If you don't know what the Virtual Showcase is, check out Matt Miller's website HERE.
Don't worry - if you are interested in signing up for the Coaching and Virtual Showcase this month, we are holding a couple of spots. Sign up HERE.
And remember: I'm offering a discount for the month of September on tapings and coachings. You just have to mention the code phrase, which you can find HERE.
What a thought-provoking taping today in the studio. Thanks, Electric Heart Media! I'm still thinking about it...
In other news, registration for my Kids and Teens class at The Second City ends this Friday - TOMORROW! Parents: don't miss out! Sign your kids up today.
There are only a few days left to sign up for the Coaching and Virtual Showcase at The Second City! This is a class designed for the advanced teen actor, and focuses on preparing commercial copy and scenes for an online showcase. Get all the details HERE.
I love a session on Saturday morning - hardly anyone is on the train! Today I worked with Miguel G. on his audition monologue. Thanks for coming in, Miguel! I look forward to seeing more of your work here in Chicago.

It felt great to be back in the studio after an extended vacation. Thank you to Acting Studio Chicago for putting up with my multiple schedule changes!
No major news to report, other than to wish everyone a happy holiday. I am unavailable for tapings and coachings through Wednesday, September 7. I will start taking appointments again beginning Thursday, September 8. Some weekend appointments are available this week as well.
As a reminder, you can follow Chicago Self-Taped Auditions on Facebook and Twitter to stay up to date on any current deals or schedule changes.
Fall doesn't officially start until September 22, but this cooler weather and the fact that I can sit in my apartment without sweating has me feeling all...whatever the emoji is with the red 100 underlined twice.
To give the humidity a proper sendoff, I'm offering a discount for the entire month of September. Half-hour sessions for tapings and coachings (normally $40) will be offered at $35, and one-hour sessions (normally $60) will be offered at $50. In order to receive the discount, just mention the code phrase: STILL TOO EARLY FOR PUMPKIN SPICE.
