Laura is a gem! She is passionate, dedicated, witty
and direct. Her Meisner program continues to
influence me and it's been over ten years since I was
a student! I continually refer to her teachings and I
always discover yet another layer. I can't say enough
about how much I value my experience there. Thank you
Laura!

The Laura Henry Acting Studio is the best kept secret in Los Angeles. This is a program devoted solely to the purpose of developing actors and actresses. Laura takes you on an inner journey to learn about yourself before you ever try to understand character. I am proud to be a graduate of her studio. The skills I learned there have been the cornerstone in my continuing discovery of acting.

This program is refreshing. It's not a typical L.A. mill, where acting is an afterthought to money or celebrity. Laura's program is where talent prepares to endure the long workout, stepping into acting humbled and ready to explore one's self, as well as the lives of the characters they bring forward.

"Laura taught me how to cry, and not because she was mean to me, but because she is so brilliant at helping students 'talk from your body.'"

Actress (Alice in "The Brady Bunch Movie")

"Laura Henry is an amazing and insightful acting teacher and coach. She's the best kept secret in Los Angeles. For the beginning actor as well professional that wants to refine their craft, Laura's skills of observation and clarity are invaluable."

-Colleen Flynn

"I've had a long association with Laura Henry as an acting teacher, director and friend. I trust her word as a teacher and acting coach because it is a word that comes from the knowledge of the craft as well as an understanding of human experiences and emotions. She has a razor sharp knowledge of the Miesner technique, her first forte but certainly not her last.

She is a consummate director and I have had the pleasure of working with her as both playwright and actor. As a director, Laura is game. Game to tackle new, tough and sometimes under-written material and help it find its voice. She developed and continues to develop my plays. I can't think of a better partner, in what is a delicate and difficult process.

She's created The Allison Project, in residence at her studio, which helps to provide artists of all kinds with a place to present their work. The Allison Project environment is largely experimental in nature, and Laura's dedication to the that environment makes for some wonderful evenings of theatre, music, and fine art presentations.

I hope we'll see Laura's Audition Skills class in one of those 'LA's Best kept Secrets' articles in the not-so-distant future. She's created an audition technique that is clear and concise with each class building on the last. It's a wonderful technique which I practice everyday, and it has taken the mystery out of auditioning for me."

Laura Henry's clear, concise "tell it like it is" teaching methods have been invaluable to me as an actor. Laura's two year Meisner Program is the foundation for my work. I know no matter what the audition or what set I'm working on I have all the tools I need to get the job done.
