ONGOING SERIES
Our most in-demand class. This exclusive, invitation-only monthly series is open to actors who have completed the 3-Day Masterclass. Each week, actors are offered a brand new acting tool to expand their acting toolkit.
The series is four classes in total, spread over four consecutive weeks.
Note: These classes fill out in minutes due to popularity and are often booked in advance.
More Information:
It is a weekly opportunity to work on “the process,” ensuring that the actor remains in a “ready” state to nail every opportunity. Each week the actor will receive material to prepare. The class begins with a screen acting activity, and the session proceeds like an audition. All work is filmed and reviewed with feedback. These classes are hugely popular, and the studio cannot guarantee placement.
ONGOING CLASSES ARE OFFERED BOTH ONLINE & IN PERSON
If you have completed the 3-Day Masterclass, you can email us at info@leschanterystudio.com to be put on an advanced placement list with your preferred day or night.

2 DAY LONDON MASTERCLASS - LIVE IN PERSON
Calling all London actors! We’re thrilled to announce a 2-day Masterclass with the most in-demand self-taping coach, Les Chantery, coming to the UK for the very first time.
Based on the architecture of his celebrated Sydney masterclass and inspired by his #1 Amazon best-selling book, THE DANGEROUS ACTOR, this exclusive London masterclass will focus on the most critical skill in today’s industry: mastering the self-tape.
In a global market where casting happens from your living room, Les will teach you how to book the job again and again.
Known in Los Angeles casting circles as “the actor whisperer,” Les’s approach cuts deeper than technique. He helps actors step into their danger, command the room, and deliver self-tape performances that are not only watchable but feel-able.
This workshop is designed specifically to give actors a cutting-edge, career-defining training experience.
