Without hesitation, I fully endorse and recommend Jared Kelner's book LINE? The Creative Way for Actors to Quickly Memorize Monologues and Dialogues. Every actor must memorize lines and most actors look at the line memorization process as something outside of the craft of acting, but in fact, it is very much an integral part of the craft process and as such, actors need a craft technique to help them. In his book LINE?, Jared Kelner brings something inventive, innovate and important to the craft of acting. The technique of imaging that Jared teaches for line memorization mirrors imaging concepts I share in my book Acting, Imaging and the Unconscious. I am pleased to endorse Jared Kelner and his contribution to our craft. LINE? is a must read for every actor." Eric Morris: Actor, Acting Teacher and Author of "No Acting Please", "Being and Doing", "Irreverent Acting", "Acting From the Ultimate Consciousness", "Acting, Imaging and the Unconscious", "The Diary of a Professional Experiencer" and "Freeing the Actor" --- "I wish I had a dime for every actor who has told me their biggest fear was memorizing lines. So I was delighted when I discovered Jared Kelner and was able to introduce him to my students. The response to LINE? Was so positive. The actors felt they had received valuable tools to overcome their fears and move forward in their work with confidence. Jared's positive enthusiastic style is so encouraging it's a pleasure to be in the classroom with him." Valerie Adami: Owner/Director Weist Barron Acting for Film & TV --- "OK Actors, Quiet your mind and get this book. It will change your life for knowing your lines forever." Tim Phillips: Founder of The Tim Phillips Studio in Los Angeles and author of "Audition for Your Career, Not the Job: Mastering the On-camera Audition" --- "Bottom line, the memory techniques taught in LINE? work. Any actor who's ever struggled to remember their lines needs to buy this book and read it right away. I only wish I learned this memorization method years ago." Javier Molina: Associate Director of the Action Theatre Conservatory and Lifetime Member of the Actors Studio --- "Whether you're a novice cast in a community theatre production or a professional actor whose Teflon brain is causing you to lose jobs, LINE? will save your life. This is the best monologue and dialogue memorization system that I have ever come across. Jared Kelner breaks the process down into simple steps that will help you memorize your lines quickly and creatively. I am highly recommending this book to the students I teach and the actors I direct." Gerry Appel: Director of The Playhouse Acting Academy ---

Silver Dollar, a 1-act drama by Jared Kelner. Secrets of abuse, buried for decades, are ripped to the surface and the truth leaves the family forever changed.

SILVER DOLLAR has been described as an "incredibly uncomfortable drama...with substance and layers." I hope that you leave this show transformed in some small way, that you have more questions than answers and that you give great thought to what might happen if the truths you once held to be sacred were shattered before your eyes.

The original play "What Do They Become?" written by Jared Kelner (author of the book, LINE?) and directed by Gerry Appel (artistic director of Playhouse Acting Academy) first appeared in the 2015 Venus-Adonis Theater Festival at The Robert Moss Theater at 440 Lafayette Street in NYC on January 6th at 9pm, 7th at 6:15pm and 10th at 7pm. The talented cast consists of Jared Kelner, Marina Vrahnos, Sarah MacMillan and Chris Robertson. In this ninety-minute powerful play, the complex characters explore themes of love, marital problems, neglect, abuse, betrayal, abandonment and broken systems. Marriage is difficult, especially when infidelity and alcohol are present. Often times, couples, in what appear to be a "bad marriage," love each other and yearn for their origin, but obstacles they've placed between them prevent the re-connection. Foolishly, some couples believe a child will help resolve their marital problems; give them something to "work on" together, but if they don't address the issues between them, a child will likely drive them farther apart. But what if that child is temporary, from the Foster Care system? Could caring for someone else's child for a moment in time help the couple rediscover their love? Is it fair to the innocent child to be used as therapy aid? What happens to these Foster Care Children when they are passed from home to home? What do they become?

Notes from the Playwright Love, when focused, can overcome the tragedies in life. A PROMISE TO YOUR MOTHER explores the lives of those left in the wake of one man's heinous crimes. Malcolm made national news when a vengeance-filled father of a girl Malcolm was accused of raping, crashed his car into Malcolm's, killing Malcolm and his wife. The tragedy sparks a series of revelations that will forever entwine the lives of Malcolm's 14 year-old daughter, his twin brother, a young mother with a haunting past and her 15 year-old derelict son. Notes from the Director One person reacts to the touch of evil in their youth by spreading that evil throughout their dark, sinister life. Victim becomes demon. Another person learns from that touch of evil in their youth and helps others suffering from similar circumstances. Victim becomes healer. In the painful, twisted maze of A PROMISE TO YOUR MOTHER, four victims yearn for a safe place - a place to connect, to share, to trust. As you witness their journey, consider this: What if it were you? Which road would you take?
