Our history
The Andrés Soler Institute was a dream, a challenge. Now it is an achievement of daily dedication, will and vocation. There is no destiny that is not the product of clear objectives, of a fighting spirit.

We are a school established in the generous need to train actors that, in 1951, the Soler brothers, Jorge Negrete, and Rodolfo Landa, had with the nation. On June 11th they opened the doors to a performing arts center where the training of dramatic artists is a priority. The Andrés Soler Institute during the first months was directed by the actor Fernando Soler, however, due to the demand for his artistic work he had to leave the management to his brother and first actor Andrés Soler, for 19 years the institute was excellently directed, having as its headquarters an old mansion in the Roma neighborhood.

As director of our institution, Andrés Soler always showed great impetus and dedication, he never gave up in his work as director of the institution, his dedication was so great that he managed to promote the IAS nationally and internationally, always ensuring the necessary talent and artistic preparation with the academic faculty with great personalities and professors of the scene, such as: Ignacio Retes, Enrique Retes, Rodolfo Usigli, Alejandro Jodorowski, Seki Sano, Barbara Gil, Roberto Mitzuko, Xavier Rojas, Carlos Bracho, Óscar Ledezma, Antonio González Caballero, among others. After 19 years of hard work leading the Institute, Andrés Soler dies at the age of 70, leaving behind a constellation of those who have graduated from our school, actually more than a thousand actors.

Years later, after 34 years, as a result of the damage caused by the 1985 earthquake, the Andrés Soler Institute never stopped and continued its educational model in other locations granted by the Ministry of Public Education and the National Association of Actors.

In an atmosphere of peace and discipline, the perfect space for the actor’s inner moment is created. The one that manages to overcome the conditions to reach the staging, in theater, cinema, television, dubbing, digital platforms or any space where fiction happens; it breaks through the silence, calms the nerves and penetrates the imagination with concentration, to resize the special moment in the character’s life, making it unique and irreplaceable.

An actor who inspires, moves, makes us remember, slows down time, suspends it, like a magician, to change everything between inspiration and exhalation. Flow and act with the spectator who travels with our student. We do seasons of academic productions: they give the student experience, they learn production, marketing and achieve dramatic progression through repetition, scenography, lighting and costumes at a sustainable academic level.
