“Cara Alvey's Actors Workshop has been a wonderful experience for my son. Not only has he learned great tips on acting, improv, and all types of auditions, he has made friends. He's gained confidence and has gained communication skills that will transcend beyond acting. Cara loves what she does and loves the children she teaches. She gives each child personal attention and truly cares about them and their success. I honestly believe that will the help of Cara, my son has increased the amount of auditions he gets and helped him secure management and representation with Abrams Artists Agency in Los Angeles.”

“My daughter began acting classes with Cara in 2019 when she was 7 years old. Cara was my daughter's first acting coach and worked with her consistently for 2 years (one year was during COVID via online Zoom classes). She was instrumental in my daughter developing and growing as a young actress. Cara was extremely supportive and knowledgeable, and my daughter thrived under Cara's coaching. She booked acting jobs, a short film, and commercials in Arizona, and Cara was especially encouraging and helpful in my daughter pursuing her dreams as a young actress in Los Angeles.
Kiaira LaddParent of Kapri Ladd, Co-Star Nickelodeon’s “Side Hustle”, and “Danger Force
Our family relocated to Los Angeles permanently in 2021 and my daughter has booked roles on Nickelodeon's Side Hustle and Danger Force, and shows such as 9-1-1 and Bob Heart's Abishola. She's been in commercials such as McDonald's, Amazon, and Target, and starred in a NFL Super Bowl commercial alongside her real brother. She also starred in the short film FATHEAD, as the main character Fathead, which is nominated for 2023 NAACP Image Award.
I have to say, without Cara's knowledge, experience, encouragement and support, I'm not sure we would have been equipped and ready to pursue my daughter's dreams in Los Angeles. Cara is a wonderful, sweet person and has become a trusted friend. I would highly recommend her classes to anyone looking to grow and flourish as an actor.”

“I have to say that Cara has been an amazing experience for our cast on “New Haven Chronicles”. It’s fascinating to see the degree of improvement in our actors over the past few weeks. I know we couldn’t have done it without her. Thank you Cara!!!”

“We were referred to Cara a few months ago and she was so welcoming to Mackenzie and I from the day we met her. Cara took the time to talk with us about herself and what she has to offer with her classes and private lessons. Ever since Mackenzie has been attending her in-person acting class on Sundays and doing private lessons a couple times a month she has improved so much! Right from the start Cara identified specific areas Mackenzie needed extra help in as far as acting skills. I am blown away every time I watch a self tape that she works on with Mackenzie at how good it is because of her coaching. She is so patient and focuses on all the important aspects to making a great self tape. She definitely knows the business and what she’s doing. Mackenzie enjoys going to her Sunday class every week because Cara makes it fun for them. I am truly thankful everyday that we found her!”

“Cara Alvey is the best acting teacher I've ever had. I can honestly say I would not be where I am without her. After a year of taking classes and privates with her, I have gotten an agent, multiple leads in films, and got into top ten acting schools. She is the nicest person ever as well. She is also invested into her students as well, she will send me auditions, refer me to agents, photographers for head shots, and she was occasionally call me to get my butt back in class when I've been gone for a bit. She is the greatest teacher and an amazing blessing. I highly recommend taking classes from her.”
