The Actors Studio Workshop is a cornerstone of American theatre, celebrated for pioneering method acting since its 1947 founding in New York City by Elia Kazan, Cheryl Crawford, and Robert Lewis. With principal spaces in New York and West Hollywood, the studio has long been a home for actors, directors, and writers exploring character, truth, and performance. Public performances are occasional and can be free when a work is ready for an audience; the official site maintains calendars for both cities.
