Description |
|
| |
|
|
| |
An actor has to have a different knowledge of what it is to be a human being. We begin with Herbert Berghof’s definition of acting: “I am. I want. I do.” Get to know yourself through exploring your senses, your body, your breath, your voice, then begin to expand your understanding of who you are and could be. In a joyful, supportive atmosphere we strive to teach you a way of working. Gain courage to be yourself, to show up fully, and explore your potentials through doing. Bring the 3 P’s: Patience, Passion, Persistence. (Please also bring your lunch, comfortable clothing to move in, and a yoga mat if you have one!) |

Term 1: Fall 2012 (14 weeks) $840
Showing Up: Tap into your own potential
Awareness, concentration, grounding, presence.
Who are you? What makes you walk, talk, feel?
Your senses, your alignment, your breathing, your nervous system.
Your body is an instrument on which you can play.
September 9 to December 16. No class November 25.
Term 2: Winter 2012 (12 weeks) $720
Wanting: What do we really want? Why do we do the things that we do?
Physical memory, thought, impulse, imagination, desire.
We all want to be happy. What are the obstacles that stand in our way?
What creates the will to do, what supports the sounds you make?
Students develop their powers of observation. Begin to explore a character in a play and make choices as to what could possibly motivate them.
January 6 to March 24
Term 3: Spring 2012 (12 weeks) $720
Doing: How do we get what we want?
Action, invention, play.
“Breathe into meaning.”—Catherine Fitzmaurice
“Motion creates emotion creates motion.”—Anna Sokolow
This is the crux of acting: the steps we take to achieve our wishes
determine who we become.
Students work together on a play, leading up to a presentation at the end of the term.
March 31 to June 23. No class May 11.

“...An organic transference of oneself to the role, the development of a new “I” who is alive in the world of the play, involves a creative process which is not a willy-nilly, loose way of working that depends solely on intuitive or illusive inspiration. On the contrary, it is a process which, however slow and painstaking, can be structured in an orderly way over which the actor has control, although no part of it is mechanical... It is a true challenge of one’s diligence and one’s talent. This process is to me like the drafting of a musical score in which the actor composes the character’s theme, orchestrates it, defines the phrases, individual beats, and the arrangement of the notes he will eventually play with spontaneity at each performance, putting to use his finely honed inner and outer techniques.”
