Pedro Garcia, co-founder and current Artistic Director of PCT, will lead the workshops. Garcia has been a member of the Screen Actors Guild since 1994, when he made his debut in the film Mad Love alongside Drew Barrymore and Chris O’Donnell. Recalling his audition experience, Garcia shared: “At the audition, director Antonia Bird asked me to pretend that she had stolen something from me that I wanted back. By the end of the audition, I literally chased her around the table. A few days later, I was cast in Mad Love and had a speaking line in the film.” Since then, Garcia has appeared in acclaimed productions such as Breaking Bad, Tejano, Halt and Catch Fire, Fast & Furious Five, Queen of the South, and numerous independent films, including several produced in the Rio Grande Valley. He has extensive experience in theater, film production, writing, casting, and directing. Garcia’s current film and commercial agent is Pastorini-Bosby in Houston. He also does Spanish voice-over work for Internetjock.com and Voicejungle.com. Class sizes are limited to the first 25 participants.
