"When I first started at Greenhouse, I had very little acting and performing experience outside of improv, so it’s no exaggeration to say I’ve learned almost everything I know about acting from Hazen. He has an intense, intimate way of working that forces you to learn and grow. At times it can be challenging or uncomfortable, but it’s his goal to stretch you as an actor, and the results can be truly staggering.
His technique focuses on action, sensation, and repetition, so that by showtime, you’re primed to give the most robust and fully realized performance possible. If you’re considering working with Hazen, be prepared to take a rewarding and demanding next step in your journey as a performer, but also be prepared for some fun. I’ve had some great laughs in Greenhouse rehearsals." - Chris, Actor.
“His kind, thorough, and excellent instruction was the best I have ever received. I am incredibly grateful for his help.” – Judy, Actor.
“The vigor of his process, and the profound joy evoked through creativity, is infectious and inspiring. If you’re interested in exploring the depth and humanity of a character – this class would be wonderful to be a part of.” – James, Actor/Writer
