Reviews
"I have taken many classes with Actor's Bridge over the years and I can say this is an organization that truly cares about its students, folks involved with their productions, and the larger community of Nashville. The classes invite personal growth as much as developing skills as actors. And there are so many ways to be involved with Actor's Bridge that you can truly feel a sense of community even when you are not actively taking a class or involved in a production. Nashville is lucky to have ABE and the amazing and talented folks who teach and help run it."
"I've been in love with Actors Bridge for 20 years or more. They are a training company that teaches the Meisner technique and it is a powerful school indeed. AB can do wonders on a shoestring, and this latest production of Kodachrome is no exception. I have seen perception-bending plays produced by these guys using as close to nothing as you can imagine, and came away feeling like I'd just seen a Broadway production. Give these guys a chance to change the way you think about theater."
"Very interesting."
"ABE has long brought life changing stories to Nashville. Through their work with actors and theater artists, ABE inspires creativity in the community. And via Act Like a GRRRL, ABE synthesizes art making with a social venture. Truly an original!"
"They're great!"
