KELLY AUCOIN ("Dollar Bill" on BILLIONS, WeCrashed, The Sterling Affairs, hulu's THE GIRL FROM PLAINVILLE with Elle Fanning, THE AMERICANS, etc ) "Caryn’s workshop is just the best. So much savvy feedback on how to attack a scene, and give your best performance. How to identify the style of the project you’re going up for. But also, just such incredibly detailed advice on tech, what the decision-makers are ACTUALLY looking for ... She’s rigorous but super supportive. And just a f*cking blast to be around. ”

ALYSIA REINER (BETTER THINGS, Fig on ORANGE IS THE NEW BLACK, Sundance hit EQUITY and SIDEWAYS etc): “Caryn’s was the first & BEST audition intensive I ever took. She is a genius of both technique and actor psyche and cutting through habits that hinder us. I use so many of her techniques both in auditions and on set”
