"I REALLY lucked out with AFA. I live in the valley and used to have to go over the hill to do auditions. I had to deal with the stresses of where to park, is the reader good, do I feel comfortable to be fully vulnerable in an audition with them? I don’t have to deal with any of that now. AFA is a great space, right near home, parking is not an issue, the quality of what I get is great. I get to read with a great actor and when I ask for direction they guide me where I need to get. AFA has been a huge stress relief for my auditions and the product I get from it is fantastic." - Jamie McShane "Mank", "Animal Kingdom", "Bloodline"

"I love AFA’s seemingly limitless optimism and encouragement. Ever since I started working with y’all it has been non-stop. It always pushes me to be better in my auditions and on set. Plus, working with y’all has taught me to think of ideas in my acting that would’ve NEVER thought otherwise. By expanding my creativity and willingness to explore new ideas, I’ve become a more versatile actor" - Reed Horstmann "The Expanding Universe of Ashley Garcia" on Netflix |
"On the most practical level, AFA builds actors up in a way that powerfully equips them to function fruitfully in the business and craft of acting, while also creating a safe and collaborative community for them. Abbie and Chelsea share every single drop of wisdom, experience, success, failure, joy, mourning, and victory that they’ve worked for and earned for decades without any hesitation. They give and teach in a way that truly says, “when you win, we win.” " - Aqueela Zoll "Filthy Rich" on Fox |
