Angela coaching brought me so much insight that it’s changed my work as an actor. She is very knowledgeable about technique but she also brings her own brand of teaching to the table which is unique. It helped me break through and get my first Broadway show which ended up winning the Tony. Angela is a great coach. Period. It’s money well spent. I’m tired of seeing ads from other joker acting “teachers” who have no clue. She’s the real deal

From being in theatre with a children’s group. It was a children’s touring group. We ranged in age from 8-years-old to 20-years-old. As I was older (aged 19 on the 1st tour; 20 on the next).
