We are all natural storytellers. Acting today comes with a lot of obstacles and requires a lot of preparation. Tasks such as how to prepare most effectively and efficiently for an audition, rehearsals, and performances is what we will be discovering in this course. In this course students will… ● Explore a series of techniques geared towards performing a successful audition. ● Learn how and what to prepare, as well as how to behave and perform in this unique setting. ● Students will be required to “audition” for a specific play in front of a panel of local professionals. ● Teach and sharpen the technical skills that an actor uses to do their work. ● Study the great acting teachers and innovators from Stanislavski to Chekov, Brecht, Spolin, Brook, and well beyond (all will be taught). ● Prepare a scene with a partner(s) from a classic and challenging play - this scene will be the final presentation in front of local professionals.
