Jack Schultz has been the proud owner of Green Shirt Studio since 2019, where he's logged thousands of hours in the classroom guiding students of all experience levels through Levels 1–5 of Green Shirt’s Meisner Acting Program. His passion for training actors is matched only by his love for building community—something he took to the next level in 2023 when he co-founded Chicago Actor Staffing with his wife and creative partner, Alison Schaufler.

Alison began taking classes at Green Shirt in 2020, graduated from the Meisner Acting Program in 2021, and completed Green Shirt’s Teacher Training Program in 2025. In Chicago, she has performed with companies such as Pulse, Right Brain Project, The Agency Theater Collective, and Instrumental Theatre Company. She also tours nationally with her band Bess and Marley, performing at Renaissance Faires across the country - including the Bristol Renaissance Faire in Wisconsin. Come see her this season! Before moving to Chicago, Alison studied theatre at Skidmore College, where she trained with acclaimed SITI Company's Will Bond. After graduation, she toured with Hampstead Stage performing improv and children’s theatre, and she also trained with Synetic Theater Company in Washington, D.C. Alison is passionate about work with a big heart that doesn’t take itself too seriously. She’s thrilled to join the Green Shirt instructor team and share her love of performance while helping others take meaningful steps toward their own acting goals.
