Simply Acting

My son was hesitant about doing a 4 hr acting class and had real apprehension about going. Well he went and it has been the BEST thing that he’s ever done. I can’t get him to leave when class is over. We have to drag him out of there. Andrew is brilliant. I can’t say enough great things about Andrew. He has taken my sons acting skills to a whole new level. He truly is the BEST. We love him so much. He’s amazing.

Amory loves going to Andrews class every week. she says she learns something different every time she goes. Thank you Andrew!

Drew is phenomenal! If you’re a serious actor looking to hone your skills and get to the next level then Drew is your man. He takes the fundamentals of acting and uses them in his own fantastic approach of laying them out for you in a physical sense. I’ve grown so much training with him and trust me, his stuff works! You can audit for free but you’re definitely going to want to sign up ASAP!

Andrew is Great! My son loves going to his class every Monday. I was very impress with the way He does private couching. The prices are reasonable. He is very professional and knows how to handle small children. If you are serious about acting, you should definitely attend his classes.

I have been studying with Andrew for 8 years now and can’t even express how amazing he is. I have grown so much as an actor and person just from studying at Simply Acting. He is THE BEST for putting auditions on tape and amazing at private coaching. I have booked just off submitting a tape made with him. I have also been in his nightly class for years and it’s always developing and changing with the needs of the actor. Simply Acting is amazing!!!

Studying with Andrew revolutionized my approach to the craft of acting, especially for TV & Film. There are so many acting teachers in Los Angeles, but Drew actually replicates what happens in the real world (casting process, being on set, the creative & technical aspects) to the class room. It’s not surprising that his students have a high booking rate in major tv shows and big budget feature films.

I met Andy when I was 16 years old. He coached me on my very first audition in Los Angeles and I booked it! He’s been my acting coach for over 20 years and I’m beyond grateful for everything he’s taught me. He’s truly a gift! If you’re new to acting, go see Andy. If you’ve been acting forever, go see Andy. I think you get my point.

Andrew’s kids’ acting classes are amazing! First, physical, fun games help get us focused, and teach us teamwork and how to deal with pressure. Then, after pizza, we get down to business. We break scripts into «moments» and complete thoughts, and we learn to make them «real.» We are taught to be «Focused, Calm, Cool and Considerate.» Andrew can be tough with disruptive kids, but he’s always fair. He tries hard to be neutral, so we learn to judge our own performances. I give his classes my highest rating: five stars! –Mariel S. (9)

It says it all in the name, ‘Simply Acting.’ Thats exactly what takes place at this studio! Andrew really breaks down acting and makes it ‘simple’ to understand for his students. Andrew helped me get out of my shell and made me feel comfortable and confident in my acting by breaking down and giving all of his students the fundamentals and tools they need to be skilled in the field. I would highly recommend his classes for everyone– beginner to advanced.

I have grown so much with Andrew! He is the best! Has so much experience and knowledge of this industry.
His weeknight classes are different than any other class I’ve taken in la, the first half is so much fun and full of games that relate to the acting portion in the second half of class. It makes things way more comprehensive. You do different things every week which keeps it fresh and you learn in different ways.
His private coaching is also amazing! Everything I’ve booked I have coached with drew. And he tapes auditions that look so professional, I don’t tape with anyone else.
Drew is wonderful. He cares about the people he works with while demanding the best! The environment he had created is something i look forward to going to every week. I am a way better actor because of him. Love Drew!

There is nobody better to teach the fundamentals of good acting than Andrew Magarian. His resume proves it, though you’ll be hard pressed to get it from this humble, veteran coach. He has helped launch the careers of a laundry list of successful, working actors by providing rock-​solid technique and an understanding of the business. You won’t find a better teacher, nor a better man.

Sincerely… I am dumbfounded as to why I have not given a Unilocal Review. Hear me if you want your best shot at becoming a booking actor, if you want to leave the casting office with your name remembered, if you want to be noticed in this noisy world… Andrew Magarian will give you the tools to live in the moment, in the room, on the stage, in front of the camera. Your career starts here. It did for me and so many celebrity name alumni. You grow into your best at The Shop.

From actor development to nailing auditions, my daughter has grown tremendously in Andrew’s classes. His fervor for the art and commitment to his students is truly incomparable.

Andrew Magarian is a brilliant teacher! The prices are reasonable, and training top notch. This is probably why all the students seem to be working constantly.
