Maggie Flanigan Studio, New York City | ActorRated.com - Rate & review headshot photographers, CD workshops, acting classes and more.

I studied under Maggie at Rutgers in the MFA program. She is, by far, the most authentic and passionate artist you are likely to come across in your training anywhere, ever. Her critiques are spot on and go directly to your core. She is demanding and compassionate, a rare mix, and perhaps most importantly, she is driven by her love of the art, and holds each and every actor in her presence to the highest standard imaginable. I respect her. I love her. She is not "selling" a product, as so many of these teachers/coaches are. She's the real deal. And if you are lucky enough to make it into her studio, you WILL be transformed -- as both an actor and a human.

Every day in class was an epiphany...Maggie has this extraordinary ability to instill a strong sense of truth in each of her actors. Her teaching method is clear, efficient, and inspired. I walked away with a specific way of working. I tend to refer to her as "yoda."

Maggie is without doubt the greatest living trainer of actors. I have trained with many others accounted the best NY has to offer, and she beats them hands down. Her absolute commitment to, and understanding of, truth in acting combined with her ability to elicit such truth from her actors, is legendary, and deservedly so. She's the toughest, most brutally honest, and most wonderful teacher you will ever, ever have. If you are lucky enought to work with her, you will never, ever regret it. She will absolutely change your life both professionally and personally for the better.
