What is the "worst of" inside the actors studio? I mean its the title so what does it mean.
I am going to ask you a question that hope you consider it and answer me kindly.
I am a 40 years old woman, who started to learn acting from 5 years ago and that passion took me to higher level that i moved to another country,(canada)to pursue it in better condition, now in this level i decided to move to L.A,,(heart of movies industry )and continue studying and perhaps more opportunity, because here in Canada i did not get that much and financially i can say i earned only 400 for 3 years working...can you imagine?
my question is that,what do you suggest me to start in L.A?which classes or teachers are the best to make my dream come ture by their method or you know as best known acting teachers or institutes.
your answer will help me to find my way correctly
thank you so much
