Duane Allan

I spent three years learning and growing at the Adler Studio. As I... leave I am filled with more gratiture than I can say. Gratitude for the time spend in the safest and most supportive of environments. Gratitude to a staff of teachers as grounded in their discipline as they are in their warm demeanors, and gratitue for being made a part of an acting tradition unmatched throughout the past six decades. Thank you.

Alexandra Lydon
(NYU '03):
My Training at Stella Adler gave me a foundation on which to stand as an actor. It challenged me and helped me to grow as an artist and a person. Whether I am on stage, on a television set, or shooting a film, the technique I gained at Adler carries with me through it all. It reminds me I am an artist and that is what is most important above all. I am forever grateful to the theacers at Stella Adler that showed me the true meaning and importance of craft, and I strive to live up to it in everything I do.
