You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 54.166.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 10:02, 6 May 2025.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

The '''Michael Howard Studios''' is an acting studio for the [[performing arts]] located in at 152 West 25th Street in [[Chelsea, Manhattan]], New York City; the studio was founded in 1953 by actor/director [[Michael Howard (American actor)|Michael Howard]].

==History==
A protégé of both [[Sanford Meisner]] at the [[Neighborhood Playhouse]] and [[Lee Strasberg]] at the [[Actors Studio]], Howard established his Studio in 1953 grounded in the work of [[Konstantin Stanislavski]]. Over the years, the studio incorporated many schools of thought and techniques from around the world.

The Studio attributes its existence to the [[Group Theatre (New York City)|Group Theatre]]. In 1931, [[Harold Clurman]], [[Cheryl Crawford]], and Strasberg founded the Group Theatre in New York, beginning a watershed period in American Theater. The Group Theatre brought together [[Elia Kazan]], [[Stella Adler]], [[Sanford Meisner]], [[Frances Farmer]], [[Clifford Odets]], [[Irwin Shaw]], and [[John Garfield]] (among many others). Their creative commune introduced America to the revolutionary teachings of Stanislavski, and it set in motion new schools of thought that would dominate acting for the rest of the century. The Group Theatre closed its doors in 1941, and its visionary members set out in new directions.

In 1942, Howard joined the Neighborhood Playhouse as a scholarship student under Sanford Meisner. Howard vigorously pursued his studies and absorbed everything Meisner had to impart. Howard then served in World War II as a parachutist, and upon returning, joined Equity in 1947. Strasberg invited Howard to study with him, and soon he was asked to become a member of the Actors Studio. Howard began a long career of hundreds of roles on stage and screen, including Odets' ''[[The Country Girl (1950 play)|The Country Girl]]'' on Broadway and the film ''[[The Men (1950 film)|The Men]]'' with Marlon Brando. Acting led to directing and, in 1952, to teaching, when [[Sidney Lumet]] asked Howard to replace him at the [[High School of Performing Arts]]. The next year, in 1953, a group of actors asked Howard to lead their sessions, and Michael Howard Studios was born.

Over the next five decades, Howard's teachings expanded to the [[Yale School of Drama]], the [[Juilliard School]], the [[American Conservatory Theater]], and [[Boston University]] while continuing his master classes at the Michael Howard Studios.

The studio is now in its 55th year in continuous operation making it the longest running private acting studio in New York. In honor of the 55th anniversary of the studio, the studio received an official proclamation from Mayor [[Michael Bloomberg]], declaring May 4, 2009, Michael Howard Studios Day "in honor of the studio's contribution to New York's rich theatrical history".((Cite quote|date=November 2017))
