GVA Talent Agency of Los Angeles has opened a production company, GVA-Boston, in Cambridge, MA, that seeks to bring more films to the New England area.

Robyn Owen Casting will also be a liaison between LA-based directors and producers who want to cast in the New England area. As an independent Casting Director, Owen will be able to do principle casting for LA-based films and television shows, as well as cast film and television programs produced in New England. “By establishing Robyn Owen Casting in Boston, actors will have a link to what is going on in the entertainment industry on the West Coast, and I will also be able to do principle casting for productions in the New England area,” said Owen.

Owen’s workshops bring a new type of acting education to the scores of aspiring actors and actresses in the Boston region. “What differentiates our workshops is that Geneva and I currently work daily in the trenches in the entertainment industry which gives us the hands on experience to help actors make the jump to Los Angeles,” said Owen. In the coming months, the workshops will present established guest speakers from all areas of the entertainment community in Los Angeles including actors, producers, directors, agents, managers, writers and others.

 “...This region is brimming with talent - from young children to recent theater graduates to middle aged aspiring actors who dream of making it in Hollywood. More filmmaking in New England will stimulate economic activity and will also add worldwide recognition that the region is a wonderful place to live, work and play. If we can bring more of Hollywood to New England and vice versa, everyone will be winners.”

 “...Both Geneva and I have decided to locate our new ventures in the Boston area with the goal of helping aspiring actors in thie region turn their dreams into reality. We will help them drastically by shedding light on how the town actually works. All of our attendees will receive the training that is necessary to take that first leap."
