Two Year Program - Meisner Acting - Maggie Flanigan Studio

The Maggie Flanigan Studio was established in 2001. At that time, the curriculum was limited to Meisner Technique classes only. Now going into its 16th year, students are able to enroll in three different programs, designed and tailored to fit their specific training needs. Along with new program options, the Maggie Flanigan Studio is proud to announce the addition of new faculty members and those on the rise.


This fall marks Charlie Sandlan’s 11th year at MFS. Charlie has been teaching First-Year classes, Second-Year Technique, Cold Reading, Monologue and Film/TV at the Studio for the past 11 years, while also serving as Executive Director. Charlie is the recipient of numerous teaching awards most notably Best Cold Reading Teacher and Best Monologue Coach from Backstage Readers Choice Awards.


This year Charlie will take on all Second-Year Technique classes, making room for new faculty member, Karen Chamberlain, to teach January’s First-Year class. Karen will also teach all Second-Year workshops and auxiliary classes.


Both Charlie Sandlan and Karen Chamberlain received their Masters of Fine Arts in Acting from Mason Gross School of the Arts at Rutgers University under the tutelage of Maggie Flanigan and William Esper.

STUDENT TESTIMONIALS

“I was placed in the intense reigns of Charlie Sandlan.  I became a better artist, actor, friend, sibling and daughter because of the studio. Even now, I crave the studio every day. What I learned is present in my work every day. I truly believe in everything they stand for.”

“Maggie taught me that I could control my work, my acting, and to throw all of the bullshit out that I had in my head about ‘what I should be doing’ and to just listen and respond honestly, in the moment. She gave me a craft. She is, quite simply put, THE BEST.”
