MASTERCLASS

Take the Note: Episode 2

A live, filmed monologue competition for working actors. Actors perform a prepared monologue, then a panel of directors, producers, casting directors and acting coaches gives the note. Each actor gets one minute to take it and performs again, and only the second take is scored. Round after round, until one actor is crowned.

Come to compete or come to watch. Either way, you'll see in real time how one note can change a performance, and how the people who hire actors actually think.

Who it's for

  • Actors who want live feedback from decision-makers and practice taking direction under pressure
  • Directors, writers and producers who want to see how actors adjust in the moment
  • Anyone who loves live performance

What you'll walk away with

  • A front-row look at how casting and directing decisions get made
  • Notes you can apply to your own auditions and self-tapes
  • Connections with the actors, judges and creatives in the room
