The Teachers

about our work & team

Nancy Mayans has been on the Faculty of the William Esper Studio in New York City since the 1990s. She has also taught in many other wonderful acting programs, including NYU, Columbia, Rutgers, Carnegie-Mellon, and the Yale School of Drama. She has been an acting and speech coach for television shows on MTV, HBO, and PBS and has had numerous clients in feature films, television and on Broadway.

Backstage readers have voted her runner-up for Favorite Acting Coach in New York City. She also won Favorite Vocal/Singing Coach four years in a row. She holds a B.A. in Drama from Stanford University (Phi Beta Kappa) and an MFA in Acting from the Yale School of Drama.

Nancy maintains a private practice in NYC, and additionally teaches The Unlimited Actor via Zoom and FaceTime.
