Scene Study/Acting (It varies. Some schools are not for everyone. Chubbuck, Eric Morris, and Howard Fine are not for people who aren't fans of Strasberg or Uta Hagen (ie. affective memory and substitution.) Playhouse West, Joanne Baron/DW Brown, Elizabeth Mestnik, and Acting Corps are more Meisner oriented. Try to audit these places and make sure if they're for you or not.

would help to know where you are. where your located will determine what opportunities are available. look in the phone book for acting instruction or in one of the acting trade magazines like VARIETY,HOLLYWOOD REPORTER or
BACKSTAGE. acting classes and open auditions will be listed. look around you for community theaters,classes are held at some theaters. you don't need a camp, just find some classes.
