This course is an introduction to acting based on the Stanislavsky’s approach to acting among others.
What is acting and when is the audience compelled to listen and receive what the actor is doing? How do we recreate life with more specificity and truth so we can touch and reach an audience? What is your body, breath and mind doing while you are on stage? And how can you depart from yourself to bring a character to life?
My training is very physical so I will invite you to get in touch with your instrument (your body) and create characters that are rooted in your breath and body and true to the text you will be performing. How do we move a text or how does a text move? What are you trying to do, to achieve with your words?
Theater is a large genre and there are many, but acting is often the same action. Wether you use words or not, tools and techniques are there to help you achieve your goal as a performer. We will look at many different tools to create compelling performances.
