"I wanna be on Disney Channel" is one of the loudest and most-heard cries on the Internet today from young kids and teens from all over the world. But how is it possible to make that dream come true? Is it possible? It could be, but one thing is for sure. It’s not as easy as it sounds and there are several different factors to consider. In this exclusive interview for ActingCareerStartUp.com with kids acting teacher and acting coach Gary Spatz, not only talks about some of the young stars he has worked with, he also has some great advice for you. |
Gary has worked for years with kids and teens on various programs for film and television including several Disney projects. (He talks about that in the video here below. For quick reference, see the paragraph further down the page.) So what better person to choose to talk to you about what you will need to consider if you really want to be on Disney Channel than Gary Spatz! He is also the founder of The Playground Young Actors’ Conservatory in Los Angeles, California, one of the most respected acting schools for kids and teens in the United States and perhaps in the world!

Since then he has worked with Christina Aguiliera, Justin Timberlake, Ryan Gosling in the past on the Mickey Mouse Club. For many years he coached Dylan and Cole Sprouse the stars of The Suite Life of Zack and Cody.

Hi Tony
I would like to thank you for helping me with the monologue question I asked you. I went to the auditions for a Drama course and I am happy to say that I have been accepted as a first-year student at the Tshwane University of Technology.
Please keep on sending me those newsletters and let me know where I can find books that will help me in my acting career.
Thank you once more.
Have a blessed day.

You are very well-spoken, knowledgeable and enthusiastic, and it shows through the work that you do! I hope our paths in the industry will cross again and really enjoyed meeting you. Thanks, again and best wishes with your very important work!
Warmly,
Gretchen, NY, NY

Hey Tony, thanks for the info, yours by far is the most useful, I am 30 years old, and I myself always (secretly) wanted to be an actress, but I never knew where to begin, so thank you. You have given me hope!
