About National Alliance of Acting Teachers

Our mission is to clarify and nurture the highest ethical and artistic standards in the education and training of actors and acting teachers. Over the last two decades, together with our sister organization The Actors Center, we have served as a leading advocate for the creative and professional health of acting teachers. Our TEACHER DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM has been the primary vehicle in this important and sustaining effort, supporting the professional growth of well over 200 teachers since the program’s inception 20 years ago, under the guidance of luminaries J. Michael Miller, Lloyd Richards, Earle Gister, Slava Dolgachev, Ron Van Lieu, and others. The National Alliance of Acting Teachers was launched in 2014 as an independent offshoot from The Actors Center. Expanding our programming to now include an ANNUAL CONGRESS, A PROFESSIONAL SOCIETY, REGIONAL EVENTS AND WORKSHOPS, and the forthcoming launch of PARODOS—a publication devoted to teaching acting—our work is born from a collective desire to maintain excellence in our craft, while providing a creative home and ongoing dialogue for those in the field of actor training. Our membership currently spans 17 states and more than 40 actor training programs. Our members teach in a wide array of actor training programs—ranging from some of the country’s leading conservatory programs to small liberal arts schools—including MFA, BFA, BA programs, public and private universities, community colleges, private acting studios, and high schools.
