Online Acting Intensive

The Meisner Acting Intensive Online provides a comprehensive and flexible opportunity for actors worldwide to begin their training at Terry Knickerbocker Studio. Led by Meghan Mulcahy, these online intensives deliver the same rigor and personal attention as our in-person programs, making it possible to complete the entire first year of the TKS Conservatory—a total of 64 classes—entirely online.

You can take one level only, two levels, or all three, which would complete the first year of the 2 year conservatory.
