Bilingual Acting Workshop NY

Bilingual Acting Workshop (BAW) is a private acting studio located in both NYC and in Paris. We offer both private and group coaching for actors of all levels of experience. We pride ourselves on bringing together multilingual and multicultural individuals to enhance their expression, education, and networking through related studies in media, theater, and film. Professional actors and acting students explore their potential as performers under skilled direction. Directors work with actors, writers workshop original material, and beginners develop communication skills. Beyond the classroom, BAW fosters the development of opportunities for its participants. As a result, several independent professional film and theater projects have grown out of BAW workshops and classes. BAW is committed to providing an intimate, intercultural performance environment for its students. The classes remain small (12 – 15 students per class) to maintain the continued dynamic and personalized training. All classes are conducted in English; participants are encouraged to use their native language for more authentic performances. BAW is affiliated with The American University of Paris and collaborates with Euro-Disney and recently opened a New York branch. Amy Werba, artistic director of BAW, founded in New York in conjunction with the Living Theatre, The Living Theatre Conservatory in 2010. Currently, BAW NYC is working in collaboration with the acclaimed Mark Morris Dance Group and is participating in their master class series.
