This class is designed as a 2 year course, which allows the actor to begin to source at a unique and authentic level the true and full expression of their actor’s instrument as it can be applied to our work with plays and screenplays. During the 1st year, we focus on cultivating and exploring the actor’s instrument using sensory awareness exercises, building a tool box with which each actor can draw upon as needed when creating character. During the second year of class, we move forward into developing and exploring processes and tools for creating character as needed in the texts we encounter. Using all of the tools developed during your first year, we move ahead with projects that include, animal work, private moments, the painting exercise, while always mindful that our work must resonate and be transportable into the collaboration with the playwright or screenwriter. Our class uses the safety and protocols of intimacy work, so that all participants feel they are safe, held up high, and that they belong.
