New York City Classes - The Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute

OurMission
The Lee Strasberg Theatre & Film Institute is the only school in the world that
offers training of Lee Strasberg’s Method acting in its pure form.
For over 40 years, the Institute has built its outstanding reputation on the
proven value of Lee Strasberg’s teachings, the astonishing achievements of
our students, and an unwavering commitment to excellence.
We challenge our students to be bold in their choices, original in their
ideas, and passionate in their pursuit of creative individuality.
Our highest goal is to ensure that each student masters Lee Strasberg’s
technique and its disciplines, as well as encouraging every student to
become a successful artist within his or her chosen field.

OurLegacy
Lee Strasberg, along with his wife Anna, established The Lee Strasberg
Theatre & Film Institute to offer the very special and individual
nature of his work to a wider public. Since its inception, the Institute
has remained a world-class leader in performing arts training.
The birth of the Institute was a natural evolution which began in
1931 with the formation of the Group Theatre. Co-founded by Lee
Strasberg, Harold Clurman and Cheryl Crawford, the Group was
created as a progressive theatre company devoted to producing
socially-conscious plays, as well as formulating a cohesive system of
training for the actor. With its pioneering Broadway productions,
many of which were directed by Strasberg, the Group quickly
distinguished itself as one of the most revolutionary theatre
companies in history.
After the Group disbanded in 1939, Strasberg began teaching private
classes at both Carnegie Hall and The New School for Social Research.
In 1951, he became the Artistic Director of the Actors Studio, a position
he would hold for over 30 years. The legion of legendary actors,
directors, and playwrights trained by him at the Studio skyrocketed the
New York-based workshop to international prominence.
In 1969, the emergence of a new generation of teachers trained by
Strasberg enabled him to establish The Lee Strasberg Theatre &
Film Institute. Later that same year, Anna Strasberg became the
Artistic Director of The Lee Strasberg Creative Center, a non-profit
organization that offers scholarships to promising artists from the
inner city. The Institute immediately gained national recognition and
distinguished itself as a major force in professional dramatic training.
The success of Strasberg’s teaching, coupled with the overwhelming
demand to study his technique, required that the Institute operate
in both Los Angeles and New York City. The roster of successful
actors trained at the Institute continued to flourish, making the
name Lee Strasberg synonymous with superb acting.

CENTER: As Artistic Director of the Actors Studio, 1951-1982. BOTTOM: Touring the world conducting ground-breaking seminars.
Strasberg lectured at Harvard, Yale, UCLA, and
Brown University, where a theatre has been
dedicated in his name. He also became the recipient
of an Honorary Doctor of Fine Arts degree from the
University of Florida. Abroad, Strasberg represented
the American theatre at the Stanislavski Centennial
in Moscow, lectured on Stanislavski in Paris,
and held seminars in Argentina. His seminar in
Bochum, Germany remains one of the most soughtafter
references on acting in that country.
Lee Strasberg’s Method is well-known throughout the
world, and its influence endures. At any given time,
students from more than 39 countries arrive at the
Institute with a desire to learn Strasberg’s Method.
For over three decades, The Lee Strasberg Theatre
& Film Institute enjoyed an association with
New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts,
developing some of the most accomplished artists
working in the entertainment industry today.
In 1974, Strasberg made a triumphant return to
acting in Francis Ford Coppola’s masterpiece,
The Godfather Part II; his performance earned him
an Academy Award® nomination as Best Supporting
Actor. He continued to star in such films as
The Cassandra Crossing, Boardwalk, Going in Style,
and ...And Justice for All. On television, he starred in
Macbeth, Emmy® Award-winning The Last Tenant,
and the critically-acclaimed Skokie.
As a respected authority on acting, Lee Strasberg
was a frequent contributor to numerous publications
and became the only teacher invited to write the
definition of acting for the Encyclopedia Britannica.
His top-selling book, A Dream of Passion, is
considered required reading for all students of the
performing arts. The Lee Strasberg Notes, based
on the tapes from his Institute classes, is regarded
as one of the most illuminating books on acting
ever published.
Since Lee Strasberg’s passing in 1982, the
Institute has continued to thrive under the
artistic leadership of Anna Strasberg, who has
passionately upheld his uncompromising standards.
In 1999, Lee’s son, David Lee Strasberg, joined the
Institute as Creative Director.
For over four decades, actors, directors, and writers
from around the globe continue to acknowledge
The Lee Strasberg Theatre & Film Institute as the
place to discover, define, and explore their own
unique talents.

OurClasses
Lee Strasberg’s Method
Lee Strasberg clearly understood the needs of actors and designed
a series of sensory exercises to train them to respond truthfully
– expressing what they feel but cannot articulate – and to live
through the imaginary circumstances described by the playwright.
These exercises develop the actors’ craft and provide them with a
clear, logical process for working. This Method is brilliant in its
specifics and is essentially an art form - the study of life, human
behavior, and the world we inhabit.
Lee Strasberg’s Method, as taught at the Institutes bearing his
name, is more necessary than ever in this multimedia world. It is
thorough, organized and prepares actors to handle the demands
of any role, empowering them to create compelling, nuanced, and
fully-realized performances.
This class serves as the foundation for all of our classes – from
Movement for the Actor, Dance, and Singing to Script Analysis
and Technique for Film & Television – and it allows our actors
to integrate and refine all aspects of their craft, creating a
finely-tuned instrument.
At the Institute, our teachers have been selected for their skills and
expertise and are among the most accomplished artists in their
professions today.
