MDL Voice & Acting Studio LLC is a Black, woman-owned, and LGBTQIA+–owned training ground for powerful, authentic performers. Led by Miranda D. Lawson—an artist and educator with over 28 years of experience—the studio blends high-level artistry with deep community care.

We center diverse voices, prioritize consent and safety, and create space for people of all backgrounds to grow. Our values are not trends—they are a foundation. In a time when inclusion is under attack, we stand firmer than ever in our commitment to equity, representation, and the transformative power of the arts.

Your first lesson begins with a relaxed conversation. I take time to get to know you—your goals, background, and how your voice feels in your body—so we can build a learning approach that works for you.

Directions:
Turn onto Rutland Dr from Madison Ave and take the first left into the driveway next to the long white building with the blue roof.
MDL Studios is in Unit 13, the first unit in the first building — look for the door with the lemon wreath.

To access the front hallway:

  • If you park alongside the building, the easiest way in is from the back — just walk up the path along the building to reach the front hallway.

  • If you park in front of the building, use the first set of stairs further down Rutland. At the top, turn left and walk to the end of the row. Call or text if you have trouble.
