How do I join the studio?

Email us! All students, regardless of experience level, must meet and interview with Artistic Director, Matthew Corozine. Interview will be in person or by phone. Based on your professional and artistic needs and goals, and studio availability, you will be placed into a class. Please email admin@matthewcorozinestudio.com to schedule your interview!

​

I see MCS hosts Resident Artists. How do I become one?

All Resident Artists are individuals or a team of artistic collaborators who have been using their art to further their communities. From creating and producing new works, to writing collectives, to hosting or creating coaching and workshop sessions to expand an actor’s artistic pallet, Resident Artists have been invited to bring their work to the studio as a way of expanding and strengthening our MCS community.

Please visit the Resident Artists page to meet our current roster of collaborators. ​

If you are interested in being a Resident Artist, email admin@matthewcorozinestudio.com.

​

How do I rent out the MCS studio spaces?

We're always open to renting out our space for rehearsal, self-tapes, gallery showings, film screenings, staged readings, full productions, and all that’s in between!

What is your Cancellation/Refund Policy

When you register at MCS, we require a non-refundable deposit to secure your spot in class

and do not issue refunds on class payments. If you register to start classes on a certain day, but need to postpone your start date, we can move that date one time only without loss of deposit.

​

What happens if I have to miss a class? 

Credit for a missed class (in the form of doing a make-up class) may only be offered if you notify us of absences at the time of your new cycle payment. Classes missed due to auditions, jobs, etc., may be made up in another of our classes as availability permits. Check with the MCS admin to schedule a make-up.

 

No Show Policy

If you fail to show without notification, you will lose the class and not be allowed a make-up.

Multiple no shows will result in losing your spot in class.
