“The folks at Fable & Sow are excellent teachers, to say the least. They keep the work interesting, informative, and rooted in constant growth, and you can truly feel that growth happening. It’s a really good place to be.”

"The way that Fable & Sow has really shaped my craft most is helping me let go of those preconceived notions. These expectations I had of what was a great performer, what it means to be alive on stage... I think that I actually feel more alive on stage now, having taken classes at Fable & Sow. It's helped me take a step back... and trust myself.”

“There’s another aspect to it too. If there’s anything I can model, whether that’s failure, vulnerability, or simply the willingness to go and do it, then that matters. I realized that acting can actually make me a better person, and that intrigued me a lot. I really love that aspect.”

"The key for me about Fable & Sow is the community that supports one another and is really intent on doing good reflection, and asking ourselves: How can we contribute to a better environment? How can we contribute to a better world? Fable & Sow is asking those questions and planting those seeds, and we all have an understanding that we're human and are growing together, and that the goal is not just to be better performers, but to be better individuals in the world that we live in."

"I can't stress enough — if you are somebody trying to make it as an actor, or at least somebody who is trying to get a better understanding of acting in a very ethical way, these are the only people I'd recommend."

"Fable & Sow is a really good fit for anyone who is getting started with acting or someone who is already experienced, like someone who has gone to a conservatory. I think they do a really, really good job of meeting you where you are and knowing exactly where you need to fit in."

"I've been part of Hampton's acting class for about a year now. I previously had zero experience. Whether you are interested in acting for professional reasons or for fun, Hampton has a beautiful way of inviting you into that world fully. Hampton's energy creates a framework where you will want to take risks as a human, to become closer to yourself and to relearn the importance of connecting with other humans. And you get to play — as an adult, this is worth more than anything."

"I had very little experience beforehand. There wasn't as much depth behind my performances, and I didn't even realize what I was missing exactly. I feel like these classes really opened up all of the different routes you can explore in a character, or story, or play. Taking these classes really shaped that for me."

"Part of the foundation of Fable & Sow is the community as well as the art. It can be a vulnerable thing, the things that we do and open ourselves up to. Without that space that we found together, we wouldn't be able to create and explore and keep growing."
