Amazing
April 22, 2020

We love SPA! My son loves his acting classes. Joe & Jennifer are terrific and not only know the industry but have that vibe that just connects with kids of all ages! And now with all that is going on, they set up virtual classes with some of the industry's biggest talent to be mentors to our children and so they can stay creative and learn! Amazing!

Love the them!
November 18, 2020

I didn't know what to expect when my daughter auditioned for a spot at the Society Performers Academy. From the get go she has been guided and coached in a way that has been just how a 6 yr old needs. All instructors have been amazing and all have their own unique style. There are no guarantees that she will book a gig but what she is learning can be applied and go a long way in the real world and as she gets older. Joe wants all the kids to succeed and you see that in all he does.

Great opportunity
August 22, 2019

My daughter signed up with Society Performers about 7 months ago and we already signed with a Manager in NYC. Joe is so on top of things. He must work 24/7, I don't care when I text him he gets right back to me. Weekdays, weekends, day or night. This journey has been amazing and we've met so many new friends. Everyone really does support one another. I can't say enough great things about Society Performers.

Awesome Experience!
September 11, 2021

My daughter is new to this school and she has enjoyed every minute. The acting coaches bring diversity in their style and really encourages growth. Often times, it is very hard to determine reliable resources and so we are glad to find this school because it has provided good information and training so far and we are so grateful. It's good to see creative, virtual opportunities available during the pandemic.

Waste of Time
March 7, 2022

I have been reading reviews and I don't understand how some people are saying this is not a scam! They put out a notice stating they are auditioning kids for XYZ and sell you an amazing story when you get to the audition. They then send an email that night stating the prices of their packages to train your child. The more money you spend, the more agents your child can "meet." This is not an audition this is an academy to train children. The packages start at $1k not including the photo shoot that is required. You are tearing these kids down, not building them up by giving false hopes.

Save your money
January 28, 2022

I honestly felt like I wasted money and time putting my child in this. I was skeptical at first about putting my child in it but read nothing but good reviews. Everything is done via zoom and ok i get it it's covid but 1300 dollars later and a month of zoom classes later plus a showcase with "real talent agents" I have nothing to show for it other then a half $#*! review from a talent agent no call backs and no really worthy of me spending any more money. I would say they are real and they do put you infront of talent. But the basics of headshots making a resume and showing us how to do a self tape can all be googled as well as auditions for things can also be googled save your money any real chance of stardom will not cost thousands

It was truly professional and great from the very first moment. All from the rehersals and bootcamps, to parent-trainings and overview, auditions and call-backs, meeting agents, and not to forget the pep-rally and gala-night! This was the best week in daughters life. I definatly recomend Society Performers Academy and SPIN. Hopefully we will be back againg!:-)

Society Performers is a great way to get your acting career off to a running start. Both of my daughters started taking classes in late October and I'm proud and excited to announce that they were both signed by a top talent agency this past Friday! Joe, thank you so much getting Danielle and Olga in front of Hollywood agencies! We highly recommend SPA and will continue taking classes there.

If someone were to tell me years ago that 7 agents called me back and were interested in working with me I would have said your insane. But it's the truth and Society Performers did just that. I've only been in the program for about 6 months now and it has completely changed the way I look at myself everyday. Society Performers has the best of the best coaches that teaches you the ropes of this business and it truly is a family there. This whole experience has truly changed my life.

Our son has been taking classes at SPA for almost 4 months and he's been enjoying every minute. The classes are fun, very helpful and always to the point. Joe is very supportive and he is always quick to respond to any questions we have any time of the day. We can see how much our son has improved within these past few months and we are proud to say that he has signed with an agency! Thank you SPA for this awesome opportunity! We definitely recommend going to SPA 100%!

Joining SPA was the perfect program to give my daughter a sense of normalcy while doing what she loves. The coaches in the program were so engaging and hands on that it didn't feel like it was virtual. We can only imagine the experience when things return to in person which we look forward to. Joe is also very personable and communicates very well with his performers. Thanks for all the great tips and even parent workshops. We feel more comfortable and confident as we navigate through this business thanks to your training.

SPA has been a pleasure to work with! During the pandemic we wanted to expand our daughter's talent with limited availability to in person coaching, we searched for a place that she could really spread her wings as much as possible in challenging times. I am so glad we found SPA and have the opportunity to work with such kind, dedicated, talented people! No matter the time, day or coast I always get quick and helpful responses and they all seem to really genuinely care for our daughter's success! Highly recommend this academy for your aspiring actors!

What an amazing group of people! Society Performers rocks! My daughter has always loved acting and has been afraid to try. As a teenager, she approached me about working with Society Performers. We researched Joe and his team, liked what we found and she auditioned with them. They quickly accepted her and have been so awesome with her. Her skills are growing and she is seeing her dream come true. The confidence in herself because of the great coaches is so uplifting. Whenever we have questions, they get back to us right away. They are very organized and efficient. Thank you Society Performers for helping mold her into something special!

Amazing program!
December 21, 2021

I cannot say enough great things about society Performers if you're looking to learn more about getting your kids started in the entertainment industry this is definitely the best way to start hands down! They help train your kids and prepare them to put them in front of talent agents at showcases which is by far the best way to be face to face with talent agents rather than just being amongst hundreds of submissions in their emails. Joe Lorenzo himself is in constant communication with all the parents and very helpful when you have any questions or concerns. Joe Lorenzo and his team are absolutely amazing and we are very grateful for this experience.

We love Society Performers Academy! As a teacher, I know how hard it can be to keep students engaged and all the coaches seriously are the most engaging, professional and motivating individuals. My daughter loves attending class everyday and she is attentive during all her sessions. She is learning so much and increasing her acting skills with the support of the amazing team. And Joe Lorenzo, best ever! He is extremely personable, replies to emails in less than 24 hours, and is knowledgeable on what it takes to make it in the industry. We are blessed that my daughter has the opportunity to be surrounded by a great team! Worth every penny! She loved every showcase and landed an agent within a few weeks. Thank you, Joe and team! We appreciate you! You guys rock! When Kennedy lands her big show(fingers crossed), it will all be thanks to you all. Thank you for your commitment to your students! :)
