Testimonials
A master of film, TV, commercial, and theater coaching, Maggie Scrantom is an expert of her craft and your ticket to a beautiful self-tape. I've worked with Maggie for several years on a variety of auditions, and have received callback after callback from our time together. She is meticulous with her coaching and strives for the best possible version of your audition, mining moments and focusing on clear storytelling while making sure you shine brightly as the star of your work. Maggie also went above and beyond by running a mock audition for a Broadway musical callback, ensuring that I was ready for any possible scenario the team might throw at me in the room. The callback yielded an incredible job at a major regional theater, and got me straight into final round callbacks when the Broadway project was auditioning again just a few months later. She is selfless, kind, professional, attentive, joyful, and makes you feel immediately at ease. I would recommend her to any actor hoping to get the most out of their audition. Any artist should jump at the opportunity to work with this gem of a human.
- AEA actor and Juilliard graduate
For anyone interested in her Zoom chat I highly recommend her class, she made me more aware of some shortcomings of mine during our audition that she helped me with and provided expert information and tips that will help me going forward and I look forward to working /booking her again!
-Auditioning for Indie Feature
Maggie has coached me through multiple auditions and helped me book so many times!! She is an accent and dialect GENIUS and very very good at meeting me where I am at every single time. With Maggie, the personal and the professional are never too far apart, she always makes sure you’re in the right frame of mine before launching into anything too complicated and she is the best person to work with when you need help with confidence, technique, and ease!

- Auditioning to Understudy Denzel Washington in Othello
Maggie Scrantom is an exceptional coach and consultant! Her acting pointers are fantastic, and she is a wizard at helping you understand the camera. Because of her extensive knowledge of on-set life, I highly recommend hiring her for audition coaching AND, after you book the gig, to get on-set pointers, prep the role, and more. She left me feeling ready and confident for my audition and the day.
- Actor booked a co-star on Chicago Fire
Maggie is a wonderful scene partner and coach. Every time we work on something together, she supports and helps clarify my instincts, and also offers insightful suggestions to deepen the work and inspire second takes. Her eye for direction makes the logistics of self-taping (lighting, angles, etc) a breeze - I always feel like I can relax into my creative process when she's around. And - Maggie's positive energy makes auditioning fun! Thanks for helping me book!
