Meet Your Instructors
Our acting classes for teens use a mix of highly trained working professional teachers, who coach and mentor our young actors. That’s why we are on the ‘go to’ list for all the major agents and managers in Los Angeles for acting schools.
Saydee Dickinson
Saydee Dickinson is a long-time student of Margie and a working actor in Los Angeles. She graduated from Chapman University’s film school with a BFA in Screen Acting and a minor in Television Writing and Production. Right out of school, she booked a Series Regular Role in an Apple TV pilot and shortly after landed a role in a National Facebook Commercial. She most recently shot a Co-Star in the Netflix series From Scratch and can also be heard on the animated Nickelodeon show Big Nate. Having worked in casting as well as at a talent agency, Saydee also has a hands-on understanding of the industry. She is committed to helping her students grow as actors and navigate the business with joy.
Chris Schellenger
Chris began acting as a child; appearing in plays by the age of 8 and graduated to pursuing his full-time acting career in Hollywood by age 14. He has had roles in TV, Film, and numerous commercials. Chris is a passionate teacher mentor and actor committed to the growth and development of young talent. Using the Haber Philosophy to guide his students into ‘creating the life’ of each person or character they are ‘living’. Being immersed in the industry from a young age allows Chris to see and know the business from a child’s perspective. After years of studying acting with premier acting teachers and at other various institutions, Chris finally found a fit being taught directly by Margie. “Living the life” resonated so profoundly that he dedicated himself to educating the youngest in the industry on how they too could begin to realize their dreams while maintaining the joy they have for acting; or as we call it, LIVING!

Halle Berry – Actress and Oscar Winner
“When I worked with Margie on the movie, Touch, I was all over the place until she centered my attention on the other character and VOOM! I was suddenly focused. She’s got the magic touch.”

“Studying with Margie was a very rewarding experience. With Margie you get what you see. The simplicity yet depth of her approach gave me the ability to realize the power of stillness and that her process is all about capturing the truth. The Haber technique is by far one of the most effective tools I use when I’m auditioning.”
