KRISHA BULLOCK, CSA Testimonials:
Lydia Yannakis 2011-12-06 17:42:50
Greg James and The Casting Workshops provide you with such a great experience like no other place. Both Daniel(10 yrs old), and Kayla (8 yrs old) have built the confidence and received knowledge in all the TCW workshops and brought that experience in their audtions, which in turn helped them book feature films and TV episodes. G

reg connects you with reputable, knowledgeable, and down to earth casting directors that provide a wealth of information both to children and parents alike, worth every penny! We actually follow TCW to different regions and fly over, they are that worth it!" Thanks Greg and Krisha, looking forward to the next time!!! Lydia (mother of Daniel and Kayla Divenere )

I thought that the workshop was amazing. I had no idea that you should actually try to strike up conversation with the casting director. I especially liked the "bag o' crap" which I think is an extremely good idea. Already have my personal postcards that I plan to send out soon. As well, I thought that Krisha was extremely constructive and quite funny. I will invite her to be my friend. Overall it was a wonderful experience and I look forward to doing something else like this. Mahoneys 2011-11-16 16:52:30
My daughter Mallory attended the Sat. afternoon workshop with Krisha and loved it! She said what she liked about it was that the talk from Krisha really helped her understand the other side. Mallory is 15 and has been acting since she was 5 years old. Mallory said that she never absorbed so much information at one time that really helped her understand what the casting directors where looking for and thinking about. It really helped her understanding of how things work after the audition process is over and all that goes into the decision making. She felt the "Tools & Tips" where amazing along with the "Postcards" and "Bag of Crap!" They will help her to further her acting career forsure! Thanks for offering such a great workshop and opportunity to work with Krisha! Elisabeth 2011-11-15 07:08:16
The workshop with Krisha was very informative. As a parent, I really liked the period of questions/answers with Krisha. She is very to the point, and doesn't sugar coat an industry that is tough and very competitive. Gabrielle enjoyed those 3 hours. She took a lot of notes which she read to us. She said it was very interesting and she was going to apply everything she learned. She liked Krisha a lot and hope to meet her again someday. Elisabeth Esteves (Mother of Gabrielle Esteves)
Jeff 2011-11-10 15:50:38
Thank you so much for the excellent workshop today in Toronto. My son David Knoll had a great time and we both learned a lot! Krisha's insights were invaluable. Cannot recommend this workshop enough!! Tao 2011-11-10 15:48:57
What a wonderful women. I trusted my 9 year old daughter in the hands of Greg & our lovely Krisha. My daughter & I drove home on a high- next day a commercial & print job. Any workshop Greg does will be valuable. Love ya Greg Tao & Savannah

Hayley thought it was fabulous.. really motivating .. and she learned quite a few new tricks... plus she is allowed to say : the bag of CRAP!! lol

definitely worthwhile!! Julia 2011-11-10 12:27:58
I was in the Saturday workshop from 2-5, I talked about my volunteer trip to Ecuador :)
I really enjoyed the workshop! Krisha is super nice and had many helpful hints. She was honest about how difficult it can be to break into the industry yet, she was still incredibly encouraging. Also, I liked how we were able to audition and then hear her comments. Overall, I thought it was great :) Both of you were so kind and I felt really comfortable during the workshop. Thank you! Have a nice day
~ Julia Scaringi
Joanne 2011-11-10 12:27:01
My daughters enjoyed Krisha's workshop very much. Children received
good direction and feedback. They were given instructions on what to
prepare for auditions and were told how to promote themselves as
professionals. At the end of the session each child was given a
personal (written) assessment, and clever ideas to keep them inspired
to work hard to reach their goals. I appreciated the honest approach
to Krisha's answers during the parent question period. Krisha speaks
very realistically about the business which is important for both
parents and child actors to hear. Sincerely, Joanne (Mom of Actresses in training)
Raymond 2011-11-10 12:25:40
Stefan had a great time listening to Krisha Bullock and all the valuable tips and information she had to share with the class. Stefan found the worshop very helpful and insightful. We look forward to more workshops in the future. Please do keep us in your roster and do not hesitate to contact us in the future. Heather 2011-11-10 12:23:08
The workshop was excellent. It was well worth the investment of time and money (and we came from out of town, so it was a big investment of time!). Madelyn had a lot of fun and learned a lot, and we especially liked the Q&A session with parents because we learned some very valuable information as well! We would be thrilled if you brought Howard Meltzer here for a workshop! I saw on your website that we was doing a workshop in Georgia and we toyed with the idea of going all that way, but the timing isn\\\'t right for us, so it would be fabulous if he came to Toronto! Thanks again to you and Krisha for putting together the workshop! Frances 2011-11-10 12:20:46
Both kids came and said that the seminar was outstanding. They learned points and took intiative to write out what they learned. Trust me they never want to write notes. They enjoyed watching other students act their lines. They could connect with Krisha and enjoyed being with her. I, myself loved the parent talk - you could tell she was being honest about her viewpoints and gave some valuable insight to parents of child actors. I also valued Larissa's surprise talk to the parents. Every insight was so valuable and well worth the experience in enrolling our child and being able to listen in the last 20 minutes. Thank you so much for bringing her to town and I hope you do more as I can tell you are associated with people who have a ton of experience and knowledge to share. Tanya 2011-11-10 12:19:14
My daughter Arielle Luder said it was the best workshop she has ever been to. She learned so much and she would go to any other workshop that came to Toronto. Thank you so much the wonderful experience. Kind regards,
Tanya Luder

sandra Edmondson 2011-11-10 11:47:08
I have to say, my son is Mathew Edmondson had the time of his life! He learnt a lot, and was truly inspired! He came out with even more confidence and hunger to become the best actor he can be. I also felt a very personal touch to this workshop. It was very informative for both Mathew and myself. He would love to attend more workshops in the future! I would trust your recommendation on other future workshops. I beleive that no matter how good a child actor is, they can never have enough training. Thank you Krisha and eveyone who helped put this workshop together, for everything! Hope you had a safe trip back to L.A. Sandra and Mathew Edmondson

Listen up young actors. Try to listen and understand. Enjoy the journey and don't focus on the fame. If you let FAME define you....you will never be happy. Be true to yourself and never sell your soul. Be CREATIVE and just quit worrying about "MAKING IT" and what others think. We are taught this and we can be UNTAUGHT!

The Casting Workshops is proud to have educated thousands of kids and parents alike across the country over the years. Your prositive testimonials have kept us going. Many kids have taken what they have learned and applied it to help them reach their goals. Quincy Fouse is no exception. He is a stand out talent you will hear alot from soon. Tonight he is on "The Goldbergs" and he just did a script-read with big stars for a big new comedy TV show on a major network. Here he is beatboxing over 2 years ago that I filmed right after the workshop. Couldn't happen to a better humble kid.

I woke up this morning to find this email below from a happy mom that made my day. It wasn't that long ago that I met her and son in Atlanta on a workshop. I shot his first headshots and that's what got him this big audition for Broadway. A top agent in LA also raved about the shots. Look forward to shooting more in Orlando next week and back in Atlanta in the Spring!

Hi Greg, Its been a year since you shot Marco here in Atlanta. The pictures have been amazing and we have an Agent here in Atlanta (AMT Agency) he has been working here and was recently cast in a new Broadway Musical so we are off to Broadway. Also if you make it to NY come see him in Tuck Everlasting and lets do another shoot!! Thank you so much for all your advice! We are so grateful we found you!!! Sandi

Actors must have strong knowledge of at least one of the following skills.

Gymnastics, sports and dance involving strength, balance,agility,and flexibility. (ie: skate boarding, snow boarding, ballet, etc.) The more the better!

Strong acting skills are a pre-requisite and experience in circus arts is a plus.They should be willing to learn circus acts quickly.
[ABRIL] Female, 8 -12, HISPANIC, Abril wants to be a star-it's all she ever wanted. She shines when she's onstage.But circus school is the first place she's ever been where she wasn't the best performer, and that unnerves her. She is still determined to succeed. It would help if she weren't so gullible. Comically, Abril will believe in almost anything-whether it's a prank, a superstition or the latest fad. MUST BE FLUENT IN ENGLISH AND SPANISH. SERIES REGULAR

[JOJO] Male, 8 -12, HISPANIC. Born to clown, naturally funny and eager to make people laugh, he’s everybody’s best friend. He loves the creativity of the circus – the costumes, the sets, the artistry. He always has creative ideas for the Big Show. He’s completely in his element at circus school – if only he weren’t afraid of heights! And tumbling! He gets nervous whenever his feet have to leave the ground. MUST BE FLUENT IN ENGLISH AND SPANISH. SERIES REGULAR


Storyline: Circus Kids tells the stories of four young kids from different backgrounds training at the greatest school in the World! As they get to know each other they become a better team. Their coach Fred, (a circus clown with acrobatic skills) has a very different approach to teaching the circus arts. Fred’s clown approach doesn’t necessarily sell well with Fred’s team, even though he is a great coach. Some wish they could be a part of the other team. But they will come to see how imagination and creativity is what makes a truly great circus artist!
