BIO
Will Doughty brings passion and vision to his work that inspires actors to play more with their creative process.
Will had lost the fun of acting after college and into his professional career. He was Over-Thinking his auditions and working Too Hard in his performances. He was losing touch with what made him fall in love with acting in the first place: Play. When you are in a state of Play, you forget about the rest of the world and can create without thinking too much about it. Will wanted to create a class that challenges all aspects of the craft. Enter: Off Book Acting.
