I had come to study with Matthew just at the right time to take my work and success to another level – and I am now THE LEAD ACTOR OF A SERIES due to Matthew’s coaching! Having studied at American Academy of Dramatic Arts in Manhattan, and with Larry Moss and Ivana Chubbuck in Los Angeles, I can say that Matthew Harrison’s teaching is definitely on par with them all and that he deserves to be placed in the same group with these great teachers.

When I came to the Actor’s Foundry i was very guarded. I never really trusted myself to just be, to trust in, and do the work because I was worried about judgement. When I came here, the judgement disappeared. I started to trust myself, and do the work. It gave me confidence, which was what I was searching for. I got all the ‘glass walls’ out of the way, became much more vulnerable. I realized, “I’m not going to get judged. Everyone’s here to do the same thing…Daniel CudmoreActor
He has a masterful knowledge of the craft. Matthew has the intellect and insight to push you to the next level and get you working.Brandon J. McLarenActor
“The sense of community here was just something i responded to…you can’t go about this in any way alone and at the same time you can’t expect or hope that anyone will do the work for you so that being said it’s just so important to surround yourself with people that hold you accountable, that encourage the discipline, that live the discipline and accountability themselves. Community is just so important…how would I have had any of these answers a…Leah GibsonActor
Work was good, but I needed to push my potential in auditions. Matthew took me to the limits of my understanding of story and text. Like magic, he clearly and articulately spells out script analysis, seeing things others don’t, and then unblocks your personal walls so you hurl yourself into your scenes.Christopher ShyerActor
I have worked privately with Matthew on several projects and he is truly a master of the text. He knows how to break down every speech and scene and make it work best for you.Cobie SmuldersActor
Matthew is a talented coach… with great instinct and with the natural discretion and timing that is so essential working on set. I know I benefitted from his ability and understanding in all these areas. I should also like to add he’s great fun to hang out with and I look forward to working with him again.Rufus SewellActor
I have been an agent for over six years and I’ve had the pleasure of working with Matthew in various capacities. I refer clients in different stages of their careers to learn and coach with Matthew often because of the comfortable and unique learning environment he provides and because of the results that are produced. The response from my actors and actresses alike is always positive and they always look forward to continuing their training with him.Lena LeesTalent Agent – Play Management
