“It’s not just a voice lesson, it’s comprehensive 360° mentorship. Your success is my success. We attain that by fostering a safe, honest, professional & personal rapport. I keep one foot in NYC & the other on LI — as an actively working union performer & musician in NYC, I keep my studio members up-to-date on & privy to industry info that is in-depth, relevant & ever evolving. I treat my sessions as life coaching & personal growth experiences and strive to develop & foster the confidence & self-awareness that fuels success. I believe my gift & privilege in life is uncovering “essence.” Igniting & honing one’s essence is the impetus that sustains joy & success in every aspect of life.
Robbie’s past & current studio members are represented on Broadway, National Tours, Film/TV, The Metropolitan Opera, Lincoln Center, Carnegie Hall, Radio City, City Center, Company XIV, Cruise Ships, Amusement Parks, and Regional houses around the world.

Performing ARTS EDUCATION
“I have worked in Arts Education for 18 years. Artistic mentorship is my life’s purpose and I provide a fun, safe, inclusive, professional environment for student artists to grow. I build stars. My students are represented at nearly every theater on Long Island, oftentimes as the leading roles. Local artistic directors, choreographers, music directors, and directors praise my ability to take a student artist from ordinary to extraordinary. My teaching approach is unique to each student artist and I am passionate about giving them all of the theatrical and real-life skills needed to thrive in the theatre industry.”
THE MUSIC BOX is an intimate, classically designed cabaret theater that seats up to 25 audience members. Complete with a stage, sound system, theatrical LED lighting, 2 pianos, an in-house Martin acoustic guitar, professional recording capabilities, and a small backstage dressing space - it’s the perfect space to hold small classes and solo/small ensemble performances.
What is the Monthly Masterclass Series?
Each month, The Music Box hosts one of Broadway’s leading industry professionals, who administer a curated masterclass and share invaluable artistic insight with my students.
