to realize and understand that acting is, “living truthfully under imaginary
circumstances. This course will consist of a series of improvisational based
exercises that allow the actor’s instrument of imagination, instinct and emotion
to be freely engaged. This course is designed to develop an understanding of
basic acting techniques through the Sanford Meisner method as well as an in
depth analysis and performance of a scene from a contemporary American play such
as Tennessee Williams, Arthur Miller and William Inge. The fundamentals of this
course will provide a solid foundation so that the actor is able to utilize
these skills in a performance.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
