| | Acting Intensive
This two day acting intensive examines the whole actor. Actors begin with body and voice exercises to experience a range of emotions, and as they get in touch with their instruments, they begin to work on prepared monologues of their choosing. Using the voice and body work, the actors learn to come from an organic center, working in a spontaneous and creative way, rather than pushing out the words. After a break, the actors rehearse and explore by discussing the character's objectives in the monologue and breaking the text down into beats, eventually speaking the text moment to moment. On day two, the group reads and discusses scenes from a play or film selected by the instructor, using the tools that the actors learned from day one, encouraging the actors to work in a free and spontaneous way.
*Students should prepare a one minute contemporary monologue from a full-length play (not from the internet). We may provide a scene for additional work.
