ACTOR THERAPY was founded in 2012 by actress Lindsay Mendez (2018 Tony Award Winner, Drama Desk Award Winner, and Outer Critics' Circle Award Winner for her role as Carrie Pipperidge in the 2018 revival of Carousel; Joshua Harmon's Significant Other; Elphaba in Wicked; Dogfight; Godspell; currently appearing on the hit TV show All Rise) and award-winning composer-lyricist Ryan Scott Oliver (Three Points of Contact; 35mm; We Foxes; Jasper in Deadland; Darling.)

Actor Therapy is a series of classes and masterclasses for performers looking to improve their auditions, build a better book, and expand their understanding of what it means to be an actor and song interpreter in New York today. The "therapy" part of ACTOR THERAPY refers to working on the actor inside. What is keeping you from going on auditions? Why are callbacks getting fewer and far between? Do you lack motivation? Is your survival job killing your will to audition? These questions and more are the topics of every ACTOR THERAPY class. Check us out @actortherapynyc and actortherapynyc.com
