WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING
“Adam Davenport is a character actor in a leading man’s body. His understanding of acting makes him an even greater director as he knows how to challenge the actor while guiding you in a straightforward manner that doesn’t get in your way. I’ve had the opportunity to work on some of my dream theater roles thanks to Adam.”
— SALLY KIRKLAND (Academy-Award nominated actor, Golden Globe winner)
“Adam Davenport is one of the most gifted and well-crafted actors I’ve encountered in years.”
— AUSTIN PENDLETON (Tony-nominated director, Drama Desk and Obie Award winner)
“One of my favorite things about Adam as a director is his specificity of vision and his ability to communicate that vision to the actors in his charge.
The lines between film and theatre are more and more blurred these strange days. I believe Adam is gifted with the tools necessary to guide actors/artists on their journey in this new multimedia world.”
— APRIL GRACE (Joker, Magnolia, Star Trek: The Next Generation, Lost)

“Adam Davenport is a joy to work with. He’s both an innovative and encouraging director. I look forward to seeing where his career takes him next.”
— AASHA DAVIS (Friday Night Lights, Pariah, Drunk History)
“A consummate professional… a clear and passionate love for the craft of performing is coupled with experience and technique, giving Adam a focused and straightforward approach that gets to the core of a moment, the journey of the characters and the stories they inhabit.”
— ANTHONY MISIANO (Actor)
“As a former programmer for The Slamdance Film Festival, I am always on the lookout for original voices in film: Adam Davenport’s Midnight Son was just that. His genius attracted the likes of a future Academy Award-winning actress, an Emmy-nominated actor and the results under his direction were undeniable. I’d highly recommend him as a director in any of the major mediums.”
— GEORGE GALLAGHER (Actor, Acting Coach, Producer)
“I have never met anyone like Adam Davenport before. He is someone I would call a master manifester and working with him has been life changing for me as an actress. He has in such a short time created a powerful, uplifting, supportive international community “TIAS” for his actors. A year ago I question my art and why I even wanted to act but after just few weeks of training with Adam & the TIAS coaches I felt empowered and proud to be an actress. I am not afraid anymore to take bold choices for the characters I embody and to fully dive into their inner heroes journey. Wanting to win as the character that I’m playing or as myself is something I started to cultivate and embrace after I joined Adam & TIAS. But Adam doesn’t stop there. His constant drive to see us, his actors, book jobs is mind blowing. For me Adam is the role model I needed and was looking for to up my game both as an actress and in not being afraid of marketing myself. As I said in the beginning he is a master manifester and he doesn’t just manifest for himself but also for us in his TIAS community.”
