The aim of this intensive scene study will be to bring the truth to
the scene, and to ensure each actor's
unique and personal vision of
the character. Participants will be paired up and given specific
scenes to
learn prior to the start of
class. A strong commitment to the work is mandatory for this
class. All
participants will need a
prepared monologue should their scene partner be absent for any of the
classes.
We will begin each class with relaxation and
sensory
exercises, and/or other exercises depending on
the
stage of the work. Then we will
work on scenes. This class is an opportunity for actors to grow
in a safe
environment. "It's all
about bringing your true and
authentic self to the work and being
present every
time
you work (at an audition, in class,
on stage or
on set). It's about finding the artist
within and
using the artist
impulse to work instead
of the
"clever" ideas.
It's
about focus and concentration and
overcoming the
self-
consciousness and fear that plagues
all actors." MLS. My
technique stems from 100's of hours studying
under master acting teacher,
Michèle Lonsdale Smith (Lyric School of Acting, Vancouver). Michèle's
technique is rooted in
Stanislavski, Chekhov,
Strasberg and a little Meisner.
Depending on where the work
takes us, we may present the scenes for the public.
