Producer and Director, Terry Jastrow talks
about studying at the Beverly Hills
Playhouse, Milton Katselas and Writing and
Directing. Terry believes that every artists
needs to practice his art. For actors and
directors it's a collaborative art, and we
need a theater and a place to explore and
train our existing art and to seek new ground
and find new challenges and explore new
challenges as actors. The BHP is a safe,
encouraging, exciting place to study. Terry
says that the teachers, fellow students and
environment is such that you can be the
student and the fool at the same time, in
that you're encouraged to explore the outer
limits and to find what's unique and new
outside of the box. Terry has had an
interesting experience at the Beverly Hills
Playhouse because he was a network sports
director for years. He has studied with
Milton for 30 years. He decided, when he came
back to class, that he wanted to develop his
own material. That set me off on a path of
writing, and he had never written anything in
his life. He wrote a play, which began as a
scene, which continues to develop. It was
produced my Camelot Artists and Terry
discovered that he was a terrific writer.
That process happened under the safe and
encouraging eye of Milton, who is a great
teacher and mentor and who nurtures the
artist. Terry says that if there's one
compelling thing to say about Milton, it's
that he will kindle the artist in you and
help you find the artist in you. Whether
you're a writer, director or actor, and
you're looking for a safe and encouraging
haven, the Beverly Hills Playhouse is for
you. Terry says "and it's fun!" In class,
the work is the highest possible standard,
equal to or better than what you'd find in
feature films or on television. A person not
only finds their own voice, but begins to
explore the outer extremities of their
talent. Terry finds it extremely exciting not
only to watch the journey of other artists,
but to be engaged in the journey himself.
