Where Actors & Directors TRAIN for
the Screen in the 21st Century*

Stonestreet Studios is a film & screen acting school as well as a producing organization located in the Flatiron District of midtown Manhattan in New York City. The Stonestreet Screen Acting Workshop ("SSAW"), an integral part of our organization, is an advanced drama conservatory of New York University's Tisch School of the Arts Drama Department. Our mission is to TRAIN actors in the art of screen and film acting - something markedly different than stage acting - by transcending previously learned techniques within an environment of a working production company that draws on the SSAW student body and the professional community to create filmed entertainment in all it's genres

FAY SIMPSON

Fay Simpson founded the Impact Theatre in 1990 (originally known as Fay Simpson Dance Theatre) with executive director Lauren B. Cramer. She has produced and directed numerous dance theatre productions including D-Train, Take Me Home, and Research and Development with Manhattan Class Company. Other dance-theater presentations include Raging Women and One Bad Man (produced by SoHo Think Tank), and Kurt's Wife; and a portrait of Lotte Lenya. In 1997, Impact Theatre produced The Marital Bliss of Francis and Maxine, created in collaboration with Liam Torres and Earl Wentz and presented at the Ohio Theater. Her solo performance piece, Trapped In Seven written and performed by Simpson, was developed and directed by Ms. Deborah Kampmeier. Triptych was developed for its premiere at Raw Space in 2002 with Ido Mizrahy.

Fay Simpson teaches THE LUCID BODY, a technique she has developed to enable actors to listen to their instinctual bodies through an in depth exploration of the seven chakra areas. She is getting her Master’s at NYU’s Gallatin School, writing her thesis on The Lucid Body philosophy of performance and healing. She teaches this technique at The Michael Howard Studios, Marymount Manhattan College, as well as solo performance courses at Sewanee University and Colorado College. She is the recipient of The Tennessee Williams fellowship from The University of the South, a Rockefeller Grant with Young Audiences of New Jersey and the Fox Foundation Fellowship, where she he served as a Directing fellow at the New Globe Theater in London under the guidance of Mark Rylance during the 1999 season.
