Laura Shatkus
Hi there! I would love to help you find the nuances of your audition...and quickly. I have taught and coaching acting for over 10 years and am myself working as an on-camera actor. I churn out about 5 auditions a week so I know your unique needs in terms of sculpting a scene and quick turn around.
I excel in making things funnier than they are (commercial copy, anyone) and helping actors find the A to C of the scene, even if you only have one line!
Laura Shatkus is an actor, director, and writer hailing from Chicago where she trained for both the stage and camera for 10 plus years.
