Thank you, Bruce. Words are insufficient. He is one of the most-- if not the most-- incredible people it has ever been my honor to meet and interact with. Someone else has already said it better- what an honor. What a blessing.

It's so hard to put into words the quality of experience of taking this class. Did I learn about acting? Absolutely. Did I learn about myself? As never before. Is this professor exceptional? Take everything you have ever heard and triple it. If you take one course at IU - take a class from Bruce.

Comment:

I would not consider myself an actor before taking Bruce's class. If you show up for his class, pay attention, and participate, you come out an "average actor". His teaching methods will change your life. I wish I had visited him during office hours. Bruce Burgun should be the reason why people do theater at IU.

I'm nt even a student anymore, and I still want everyone at IU to know about Bruce. He is amazing. He is caring, challenging, bold, and has a great sense of humor. He is the best part of my IU experience...in the classroom, at least. If you have ANY interest in theater, TAKE HIS CLASS.

T320 was quite possibly the best acting studio I have yet had. Incredibly helpful and resourceful, Bruce has an uncanny ability to help his acting students in practical ways that cause incredible development over the course of a semester.
