Alecx Lorica is changing the acting scene
“At 25, Alecx Lorica is younger than most of her students — some of whom have been in the industry longer than she’s been alive; some of whom live outside of the Philippines. But in the span of two years, she has made a name for herself by becoming one of only two Designated Meisner Teachers in the country and creating her own acting studio — Sightlines Actors’ Space.
Young STAR sat down with Alecx to talk to her about her beginnings as an acting coach, creating an actors’ gym, and why self-agency is key to being an artist.”

ACTING REVIEWS
Growing up: A review of TA Department’s BFF
“Struggling a lot with identity, Lauren’s story is told by the careful acting of Lorica…Her exasperation and youthful naiveté perfectly portray an innocent preteen so ready for the world. Even when this is no longer the case, as seen in her scenes as an older Lauren, she still manages to appear have a multitude of emotions that go beyond just being inhibited.”
