Sara Bresee and Eliana Marianes

Teaches at Action Show Studios

Sara has been improvising since her college days, and won’t tell you when that was because then you will know her age. 

She has trained with Theatre 99, the Improfessionels, Dad’s Garage, Highwire Comedy, Amanda Rountree and Friends, The Robert Mello Studio, Village Theatre and The Annoyance. 

She improvises weekly with the Main Stage cast of the Village Theatre, the Harold team Five Points Forgotten and Freddy, Sara and Andrew Have a Dance Party. 

She performs, produces, and directs with the video and stage sketch team the Non-Violet Offenders, and with her best-friend comedy duo Salty Bees, with Courtney Overcash. 

She directs and/or produces several shows around Atlanta, including The Improvised Vagina Monologues. 

She teaches group mind and movement workshops at Dad’s Garage, and is co-teaching our Viewpoints Through Movement workshops and classes with Eliana Marianes.


Eliana has been Viewpointing since HER college days (and she won’t tell you when that was because she is anti-ageism). 

In college, she trained with Out of Hand Theater in using Viewpoints to devise new work and strengthen ensemble. She has also trained with the SITI Company in NYC, where she recently took a master class from the founder of the Viewpoints technique, Anne Bogart. 

She has served as the movement coach for Theatrical Outfit (Book of Will), Gainesville Theatre Alliance (Men on Boats), and Théâtre du Rêve (Il Etait Une Fois). She also has over 30 productions in Atlanta as an actor, including: Reykjavik (Actor’s Express), Book of Will (Theatrical Outfit), A Midsummer Night’s Dream (Georgia Shakespeare Festival and New American Shakespeare Tavern), Wicket (Dad’s Garage), multiple shows at the Center for Puppetry Arts, and several regional acting credits.
