5 - 8 Acting

As with many classically trained actors from New York, Matthew Seiden migrated to Los Angeles where he used his skills to direct live theater. He was also rewarded with many guest-starring roles on hit series such as Sister, Sister and Party of Five. Now based in Atlanta, Matthew appears regularly in commercials and industrials and has recently appeared on Tyler Perry’s For Better or For Worse. Presently, he is head of the theater department at Johnson Ferry Christian Academy, where he has taught for the last five years. He regularly directs musicals and One Act Shows for both schools and Community Theatres. His work has won several awards locally. Matthew has been teaching at BAPA for over 10 years, and is happy to share his love of theatre and acting with others.
