Discover, as if for the first time, your flexibility, imagination and sensory awareness. By engaging your impulses, intelligence and curiosity, you will explore the specific physical and emotional life of a character.

Back to Basics II
Honing the skills explored in Back to Basics I (or similar training), students delve deeper into text and narrative through the exploration of scene work.

Actors Instrument
What does it feel like to be on your voice and in your body? This class will help articulate that experience for the actor. Together we explore how to release particular vocal and physical dramatic energy.
