Welcome to
The Audition MasterCourse
Four actors. Six weeks. Four Careers Transformed.
An Entirely New Way to Audition
Designed by the Director of 10 Things I Hate About You
This is the first AUDITION MASTERCLASS to fundamentally challenge the way acting has been taught since 1893. It only took 133 years to figure this out.
Breakthru’s Audition MasterCourse isn’t like any acting course you have ever taken, because it isn’t an acting course. It’s an Audition MasterCourse unlike anything taught before. It directly challenges the teachings of Stanislovsky and all the great teachers that have followed in his hallowed footsteps. It’s a modern day Auditioning approach designed for the modern day audition, not for the stage as originally designed.
For more than a century, the acting world has operated on one assumption:
If you know how to act… you know how to audition.
It made perfect sense. It was also wrong.
Acting and auditioning are not the same skill.
They have different objectives. Different psychology. A different process. For 133 years, actors have mastered scene work, character work, and performance…
…while almost nobody taught the one skill that determines whether or not you get the job. Until now.
Welcome to The Audition MasterCourse.
The first systematic approach built specifically for the art of auditioning. You’re welcome.
Enrollment: $2,500
How will The Audition MasterCourse improve my career?
The only course in the world where you’ll develop an A-list director’s level of objectivity to evaluate your own work, give yourself precise directorial notes, and consistently deliver exactly what you envision.
How Do I qualify?
The Audition MasterCourse is not open enrollment. To join, you must first complete The Toolbox: The Ultimate Audition Masterclass and your private one-on-one session with Gil. The Toolbox gives you the foundation. The private session gives Gil the chance to see your work firsthand so together you can determine which tools to add to your already abundant toolbox.
Once completed, you’ll be eligible for the final step in mastering the art of the audition: The Audition MasterCourse
Truthful behavior under imaginary circumstances - IMPORTANT
Objectives and intentions - IMPORTANT
Emotional authenticity - IMPORTANT
Concentration and imagination - IMPORTANT
Given circumstances - IMPORTANT
Actions rather than mere emotions - IMPORTANT
BUT NOT UNTIL YOU HAVE BOOKED THE JOB.
IT’S TIME to look at AUDITIONING in an Entirely New Way.

Your approach is so simple yet so powerful, it’s hard to believe it works. But it does! If you had any idea how much money I wasted on acting coaches, teachers, and casting directors.
