Train for the Stage, the Stream, and Everything In Between.
At the Voice Acting Institute, we're proud to introduce Live Performance — a new training track designed to help voice actors, performers, and creatives sharpen their stage presence, think on their feet, and master the energy of live expression. Whether you're stepping into a booth, onto a stage, or in front of a live audience, this offering will prepare you for the spotlight.
Leading this initiative is our founder, Stanley Fisher, a seasoned performer whose career spans over two decades of live work. From his early days as a high school emcee and DJ to headlining events at Universal Studios, Disney, and The House of Blues, Stanley has spent a lifetime in front of crowds — including audiences of over 100,000 people.
He’s taken the stage in more than 25 theatrical productions with respected ensembles like the New York Acting Ensemble and Courtyard Playhouse, and is a graduate of the prestigious Second City Los Angeles Conservatory Program, where he honed his skills in improv, sketch comedy, and stand-up.
