METHOD ACTING FOR TEENS: FEB 7 - FEB 28 (WEDNESDAYS 5-7PM) We provide our acting students with the opportunity to discover, nurture and explore their own uniqueness and merge that into the script to stand out on the set or on stage. First and foremost our goal is to develop the young actor's craft. The young actor develops a technique that he or she can take into any medium, be it stage, screen, TV, or film. The classes at our studio are centered around The Sanford Meisner Technique. Through the Meisner system, the actor becomes fearless and gains a strong confidence that can be applied to all areas of life. The young actor develops a love for the work, and with this, the ability to survive and work as an actor. With guest instructor Ariana Starkman!
