Student Testimonials

“Bobby Weinapple is not only the ideal acting coach, but an incredible mentor and role model. He works with detail, patience, and 100% attention to his students. As an actor, director, and performer himself, he listens with great care and is devoted to each of his students individually, while creating the safest, professional, and most supportive environment. He also is a STELLAR college audition coach, and as a result because of him, I am now a working actress in LA with a BFA.”

“As an ‘aspiring’ actor in LA , I studied with Bobby for 2 years in SF before having the confidence to move down to pursue my dreams. When I think about what separates Bobby from the other teachers is his ability to make you feel heard and that your ‘acting journey’ is a collaborative one. Bobby is one of the best, and he has made me a better actor and coincidentally, a better person during my time studying with him.”

“I began studying with Bobby about 8 years ago and I must say, since moving to New York, I haven’t found the level of specificity, focused energy, and tremendous talent of perception in a teacher since. He is tireless in his devotion to the actor’s craft and is very insightful and sensitive to the nuances of each moment on stage. I feel extremely lucky to have had the luxury of studying with him for the start of the most important formative years of my acting life.”

“I am a working voice actor and started studying with Bobby because I wanted to expand my range and work on my acting chops. I was nervous coming from voice work to stage work but I immediately felt safe and comfortable opening up in the class. His guidance was absolutely invaluable. The idea of ‘stretch work’ was new to me. It was very refreshing to focus on areas of my work that I was not as strong in and not have to worry about being good. The amount of growth that came from exploring and strengthening the imagination was awesome.”
