As a director I have never worked with a more dedicated, insightful, driven professional. I found Lori's approach to casting to be gentle and very much geared towards making actors feel comfortable throughout the process. Her sensitivity allows for honesty, and as a result, better casting for the job at hand. I will continue to use Lori on all my future projects. Lori Frankian is a gem!

Lori Frankian knows how to run a casting session. I always feel informed and prepared because she makes sure to spend time with me on the phone several days beforehand hammering out the details. She is also a supremely organized and an effective time manager - her auditions are efficiently run and I never feel rushed. She really keeps in touch before and after the audition. I always get the feeling of being well represented as an actor to her clients because she has taken the time to know me and my work. It is always a pleasure to work with her.

From the moment I walked into my first audition for Lori, she was warm, respectful, and so supportive! She genuinely likes actors, and went out of her way to make sure I felt that I was doing the best audition possible. She encouraged me, my work, and I left KNOWING that I did my best and had fun being me! Her gift of intuition and the ability to communicate directly, helps you know that the choices you're making are coming across. Rather than a cold, no-feedback / no-warmth approach that many actors experience during their auditions. I look forward to any opportunity to work with or for Lori Frankian. She is amazing!

Lori is among my favorite casting directors to read for. She provides a warm and professional atmosphere. She brings a no-punches approach, which I have found extremely refreshing and unfortunately all too rare.
Rob Harte, Actor (NY)

I was genuinely welcomed & treated with great respect by Lori during my casting experience for the independent feature, Treading Water. Lori exudes such a welcoming energy and positive attitude in which all actors are treated with the utmost respect. Her professionalism and energetic manner helped to create an environment in which everyone could get down to work...& play!
Angie Redmond, Actor (NY)

Lori's casting sessions are always productive, smooth and executed with amazing organization and patience. She takes every project seriously and consumes each script quickly, efficiently and is right on target, talent wise. Her creative nature and open mind for casting against type in Leaving Scars was impressive and beneficial to my film. I value working with Lori – she has her finger on the pulse of diverse talent that work within the theatre, film and commercial markets.
Brad Jacques, Director, Leaving Scars, Blind Drive

Lori, you were right on the money! We were all overwhelmed at the numbers and talent you brought in. This was by far, one of the smoothest auditions we've had in a long time. I look forward to working with you again! (and again and again)!
Chris DeStefano, Artistic Director, Rubber Duck Productions

As an active member of Boston's theatre community, I find Lori's energy, talent, professionalism and commitment, without question, inspiring. She brings to her work not only knowledge of the local talent-pool, but a skillful balance of organization, structure, creativity, and compassion. I support her endeavors with confidence.
M. Lynda Robinson, Actor / Playwright (Boston)

It was truly wonderful meeting and auditioning for Lori Frankian. She is warm, approachable and efficiently moves the audition process along, yet not imparting any feeling of stress or tension. She gives a welcoming feeling, like she is glad to meet each of us. It felt like she was behind me, "rooting" for me. Ms. Frankian is a caring, encouraging professional and puts out a calm energy.
