Michelle asks the hard questions and makes you dig deep to learn how to develop an authentic character. In her classes you will learn audition skills, on camera skills, cold reading skills, technique, and what it will be like on set. She takes a vested interest in her actors and truly wants you to succeed. The workshops she offers are invaluable. Within only a few months I can already see a drastic improvement in my acting and how I think about a character. I am excited to see how I continue to grow and learn. Michelle is kind, but she also expects respect and your full attention in her class, which any good teacher would. I highly recommend giving her class a try.

I cannot rave enough about the VALUE of this studios community. Even in just 2 and a half months of working with Michelle, I have learned a tremendous amount. I came to her classes not having attended any training in 10+ years and her guidance has renewed my passion for acting. Her affordable classes not only include attentive and rigorous coaching, but networking and workshop opportunities as well. Michelle actively auditions herself, providing up-to-date trends and advice that align with the industry every week at the beginning of class. Then she asks for news of her students - and the fact that there is almost always an actor with a professional update attributes to Michelles value as a coach and supporter. She forwards relevant opportunities and offers valuable FREE quarterly workshops with her film industry colleagues. She wants her students actively working and auditioning - if you are just starting out and dont have an agent, she encourages students to collaborate on projects to create material for a reel. And if you do have an agent, she provides truthful business advice.I came back to acting just for fun, but my time in Michelles studio has helped me realize that this is a passion I can realistically and ACTIVELY pursue.

I love the fact that this is a working actors studio. Michelle is a very caring and loving person but dont let that fool you. She will push you to grow and get better each class. In the short time Ive been at her studio, Ive had multiple light bulbs go off and thats thank to her and the environment she provides. I am learning to get out of my head and just let go. That is exactly what I needed. If youre an actor thats looking to deepen your work the Sherrill Actors Studio is the place for you!!

Ive learned more about acting technique, scene study, character development, and how the industry works from Michelle in one year than in several years with other coaches. Every week is something different, always a challenge. This is where to come if you truly want to learn how to become a professional actor in Dallas.

There are very few people in the world who have truly mastered their craft, Michelle Sherrill is one of these people. Michelle is an incredible teacher. Like all great teachers, her standards are high and she expects her students to be prepared and professional. She has a gift for helping her students find ways to immerse themselves into the moment. If you want to develop, improve, or hone your abilities as an actor, Michelle is the teacher who can guide you to the success you wish to achieve. I’ve always believed the most influential people come into your life when you least expect it and they will forever leave their mark on you. Michelle has done that for me and I will forever be grateful to her.

Im growing. More than I expected, in ways I couldn’t have foreseen. It’s because Michelle knows what she is doing. Ive been a performer for 27 years, 21 of those in the Stage Union. I was in need of someone on Michelle’s level. I am safe to open myself and tinker with what’s on the inside within the reverent cocoon she effortlessly creates. If you can recognize it, it is fascinating to be present and take in how Michelle embodies and transmits her knowledge and spirit. You can learn on many levels. Im deeply grateful for my growth as an artist and a person working with Michelle Sherrill. It’s wonderful to know such a deep heart.

Take my review with a grain of salt, as I haven’t experienced any other actor’s class/studio.That being said, Sherrill Actor’s Studio is wonderful. It is a professional environment where you are taught essential skills from an expert professional in the industry. This is a great place for people of all ages and experience levels. Classes are diverse. We have fun together, but our craft is taken seriously. Almost every moment in class is informational in nature and Michelle always tells it like it is. You can expect honest criticism aimed to make you a better, more well rounded actor and human being. Cannot recommend enough.

Ive been studying under Michelle Sherrill for a little over a year. I audited classes with other studios in the area but this studio felt like home immediately. Not only is Michelle a passionate instructor but she is amazingly intuitive. She has an other-worldly knack for asking you questions about your preparation and character that you never would have thought of yourself. This is really important when you are trying to bring characters to life! The studio focuses on the Meisner technique and Michelle offers great resources and book recommendations on the topic. Classes are once a week and very affordable. We practice audition technique (my favorite day!) memorized on and off camera scenes and then a free day where we can practice anything from sight reading and self-taping to the actual business of marketing yourself as an actor. I HIGHLY recommend you, aspiring actor reading this review, to at least audit a class which is free. The Sherrill Actors Studio was the third studio I audited and just like Goldilocks, it was perfect. :)Also, lots of free parking!

I love attending Sherrill Actors Studio. After attending my first class, I knew this was the place for me. Michelle challenges you and makes you think critically when breaking down scenes. Ive seen the personal growth since Ive been a student here for almost a year. The class environment is great and pricing is affordable for working actors.

Michelle is an amazing coach and actor. She is welcoming of everyone whether you have acted previously or not and treats you as an actor from the get go. Michelle is incredibly caring about her students and always provides honest, constructive feedback. As a working actor, she shares her knowledge about the industry and helps her students clarify their career goals and action steps to get there. I would 100% recommend Michelle.

I have been a student of Michelles for a year now. Prior to Michelle, I had no training beyond high school theatre. From the first day, I felt so at home in her studio. She is an incredible teacher and mentor to us beginners, along with those who are advanced actors. She is herself through and through and makes you better both personally and professionally. The actors in class truly care deeply about this art and this studio has become a close family of mine. I couldnt recommend a studio more than Sherrill Actors Studio!

Michelle is not only an incredible actress, but a fantastic teacher. She has studied her craft for a long time and knows how to share it. With a trained eye, she goes deep into the scene while allowing to actor to feel comfortable to work in the space. As a director I highly recommend her class.

Michelle is a fantastic acting coach and the studio classes are a very affordable price. After auditing the class, zoom classes started immediately after. I loved that Michelle offered the zoom acting classes during the pandemic! During that time, we did a lot of audition training & had guest speakers/coaches. Now we are doing half zoom and half in-person acting classes. Overall, I am very impressed by Sherrill Actors Studio.

This is one of the best acting studio’s your money can buy! I have been in this class for a few months and man!!! When I tell you I’m booking things left and right! You better believe me, her skills and educated teaching qualities will have you stunned! Not only is she my teacher, but she is down to earth and spends time with every actor to make sure you are golden , so I speak for everyone when I say “DO IT” if you are a serious actor or actress and you want to further your career “DO IT” , she truly stand by our slogan -(Sherrill Actor’s Studio)“Where All Actors Matter”-Allen Bonilla

Michelle Sherrill “gives it to you straight” with her critiques, that’s why I decided to join. I have been studying with Michelle for about 2 years now and it was the best decision I made to start my acting career with her, I have seen growth in bringing true emotion to my acting since I started. Michelle is well versed on how to navigate the industry, perfect if you don’t know where to start. Whatever your level, new to acting or you are already in the business , you will benefit from studying with Michelle.
