Course description
The purpose of this class is to enable students to develop acting skills experientially. The lesson is structured to help “actors” overcome stage anxiety and fear of exposure and to developing a free and creative imagination in a safe and supportive working environment. The class will focus on developing spontaneous reactions and self-confidence in the “actor – audience” situation and the ability to develop dialogue, improvisation skills, character work and an understanding of the components of the dramatic scene.
