KD Conservatory is a fantastic, intensive, pro-active program that will teach you everything you need to know to confidently enter the world of entertainment on any level, be that live theatre, television, broadcast, film on ANY side of the camera (actors, writers, directors, producers, all forms of the crew, etc...), as well as build you a rock solid foundation of acting technique, acute physical awareness, and an entertainment business acumen on which to accurately and responsibly make choices about your work. Furthermore, KD Conservatory has not only aided my education and lead me to professional work in my industry, but the school has facilitated the same success to my circle of alumni (of no less than a dozen that I can recall off-hand) who all continue to make money doing what they love- acting, singing, dancing, music directing, directing, producing, and teaching. Advice: Don't EVER accept advice on acting from somebody who is not a successful working actor. Don't seek their counsel because they know nothing.

Read moreThis is yet another school trying only to make money. Many of the school districts around Dallas have amazing arts programs (see UIL website.) They help foster arts education so they can go to good schools. Look around at the colleges around the state and close by - UNT, LSU, UT, etc. Great schools for the arts.
In addition, they have tried to eliminate the competition by discreet means. That's highly unprofessional, especially in the arts scene where we all try to work together. It doesn't speak well for their loyalty.
The bottom line is, you can do better. Especially because the music world is hard to get into. Having a mortgage in student loans while not having a job in the arts is terrible, and it happens to many people. A good school is vital to making that happen. I don't think this is a good...
