Sept. 8 - Oct. 20th You’ve always been curious about acting. You’re looking to expand your confidence, practice self-expression in an encouraging environment, get out of your shell, revitalize your creativity, shake things up, recover from burnout, or wake up your inner kid – perhaps someone has said to you, “Have you ever tried acting?”
This seven-week course introduces you to foundational elements of acting, and highlights the ways these skills can transform your confidence, relationships, and daily life. Using games, exercises, and improvisation, you will develop skills integral to an actor’s craft, such as active listening, creating ease in your physicality, trusting your instincts, responsiveness to your scene partner, and communicating intention.
In the latter half of the class, you’ll apply these skills to a series of short, semi-scripted scenes that you will create based on themes or topics relevant to your own life. Together, we will explore how acting becomes a vehicle for practicing the personal and community transformations you would like to see in the real world.
This is a class ideal for: What to expect: Each class beginning with a check-in and warm-up. Games / exercises highlighting particular performance skills. Improvised or semi-scripted scene work (created by you!) Closing reinforcements or takeaways.
