About Creating a Character: The Moni Yakim Legacy

What do Jessica Chastain, Viola Davis, Patti LuPone and Alex Sharp have in common?

This compelling portrait of the master teacher - the sole remaining founder of the school's legendary Drama Division - takes us inside the drama classes where Moni and his wife Mina pour their love and passion into preparing the next generation of actors for the spotlight.
