About
Caleb CoachClark
Hi. I'm Caleb. And I'm obsessed with acting.
I started out as a rapper, which lead to me to Shakespeare, which got me into the theatre, and I haven't left since.
It's essentially my church, where I go to worship the spoken word and the human experience.
As such, I take the craft of acting very seriously, and I see it as an honorable burden.
Take a look around, and welcome.
What's Different About
CoachClark?
I approach Acting Coaching unlike anyone I've ever encountered - and that is not an exaggeration.
First -
The foundational techniques are thorough enough that when you fully understand them, there's not a question that you could encounter that you can't answer. And I don't simply coach you with them - I teach you how to use them yourself.
My goal is that you can leave our sessions and effectively become your own coach.
Last -
After the technical building blocks are covered, we work on immediacy, spontaneity, ease, surprise, and mess. You can plan, orchestrate, and prep as much as possible (and you should) but when the shows starts all you can do is be present, need, and respond. The best work happens when these two elements are working together cohesively.
What are Actors Saying?
"This Intensive completely changed how I think about and understand this work. Not only did Coach Clark provide tangible and effective methods to apply to my craft that I already feel have upped my audition game, but he also asked questions that helped to push my mindset from the short-term worry over booking jobs and self-tape takes to a holistic, long-term perspective on how I can become a fulfilled artist and human inside and outside of the theatre industry.
Coach Clark is cool, he cares, and he possesses a scarily accurate ability to know just what exercise or question an actor needs to prompt a discovery that changes how they understand the work."
