"He is exceptionally intelligent and deeply committed to the craft of acting. What sets him apart in my mind, however, is his personal commitment to each student who comes under his care. He understands that it is his responsibility not only to guide them as a group, but to assist them in their individual journeys.... Actors flourish under his care, in part because Charles not only gains their trust, he nourishes their trust in themselves."
J. Michael Miller, President
Alliance for the Development of Theater Artists
The Actors Center

"Charles has an artistic eye and taste which I trust implicitly...study with him!"

Mary McCann, Director
