“John is THE teacher for working actors. By taking his class not only did I see an uptick in callbacks and bookings, but through his teaching I also developed a clearer understanding of who I am as an actor. His insight, knowledge, and general care for his students makes his class absolutely invaluable.”

Madison Spear

“Simply put I love working with John, in any capacity.  I’ve worked with him as a fellow actor and as his director.  In each situation, he is professional, passionate, fun and kind. He goes above and beyond. His performances are grounded, nuanced and woven expertly with heart and humor.

I’ve also loved working with him as a writer.  His comedy punch up of my feature, which he also starred in, was invaluable and brought so much to the world.  The feature script he wrote is still one of my favorite scripts that I’ve read. He knows character and storytelling inside and out.”

America Young

“ John Keating was the catalyst to a successful start in my career. He’s a master at understanding the tone of scenes and pushes you to be your best. Not only did he teach me how to tackle auditions like a champ, but his knowledge of the industry and kind spirit are what keep me going. If I could give more than 5 stars I would.  ”
