TESTIMONIALS:

"Pamela's class is one of my fave classes I've taken. Ever." -Mike Chmiel

"I so enjoyed the 3-week delve into Sci-Fi with you! The scenes you gave us made the class rich. I will recommend it to others. Great notes! I also loved the exercises!" -Donna Jean

"Thank you for your amazing sci-fi fantasy and horror classes! I had a great time exploring my range and really enjoyed your exercises. You gave me a unique opportunity to push my boundaries as an actress." -Isa Wnek

"This was quite simply the best class I've ever taken at AC, or at any of this type of institution. Pamela's class is freeing, joyous and inspiring." -Eric Michael Gillett

"Thank you for a splendid class. In recent months I have been a fish out of the creative sea with a bit of a dry spell and have found myself gasping for creative air! Your class, just the ambrosia I needed!" -Kathie K.

"Thank you SO much for a fantastic 3 weeks.  I really loved your approach combining the energy work, since acting is energy!  As we talked about yesterday, it also definitely pushed me out of my comfort zone and made me realize the only way really do that type of work--becoming a biblical creature or melting your face off or playing a magical-powered human--is to fully believe it and get all the way passed any judgements or self-consciousness and just commit." - Haley Clair  

"I just wanted to thank you for the last three weeks of our sci-fi/fantasy class - it was such a blast to workshop the scenes you gave me with such talented people, and the exercises you had us do really helped me get back in touch with my own physicality and what I can put into a role; it even helped me with a scene I was given for a different class entirely. Your advice was really helpful, and I'm very grateful I got to receive that insight into aspects of the genre I hadn't considered before." -Rachel Kaplan
