Coaching

"Maggie Hollinbeck is one of the best audition coaches in NYC.
Smart, insightful, warm and an excellent communicator.
Maggie is my first phone call when I am looking to up-level my next audition."

Aaron Galligan-Stierle, actor/director & master coach

(Broadway: RAGTIME, PHANTOM OF THE OPERA)

“As an acting coach, Maggie is great at making sure the stakes are raised and then getting the strongest, most interesting choice out of you. She’s wonderful at helping you explore and understand the text so that you can come up with choices that work for you, as the character. I can’t recommend her enough!”

Amy Persons, actor
(Broadway: GREASE)

“If I could distill my experience working with Maggie into one word it would be relief. I was fearful about some upcoming audition appointments and coped by putting a lot of pressure on myself to succeed- which was making me spiral. Within the hour, Maggie guided me through the storm of my fear-based thoughts and broke the chains off my creative impulses. I walked out of our session anxiety-free, artistically-free, and excited to go to the appointments.”

Holly Anne Williams
(Film: TURN BACK NIGHT)

“Maggie is a fantastic coach! She helped me uncover deeper layers in my material, and helped me present a more truthful and honest audition. I particularly loved how quickly she was able to work with me. She gets right to it, and wastes no time. By the end of my first session, I felt as if I had been coaching with her for weeks.”

Michael Doliner, actor
(Off-Broadway: TEETH)

“I am now waiting to fly to Germany to begin rehearsals for Pretty Woman. I ended up booking it! Thank you for your help!”

“After our sessions, I feel grounded and joyful, and am excited to be getting more callbacks and positive feedback at auditions. I feel that I am a happier, stronger person because of my meetings with Maggie. I cannot recommend her enough!”

Lizzy Miller
(National Tour: CAMELOT)

“Not only have I never felt more confident as an actor…I survived 28 college auditions and got into [my top schools]. It never would have been possible without you.”
