Final Scene

Class Experience

Welcome to acting! This is a great introduction or refresher to acting. In this course, we will work on a two - three-person scene. At the end of the course, students will present the scene as a final product. 

In this acting class, students will learn about script and character analysis and apply the techniques to their chosen scene. 

Class #1: Getting to know you, Acting Review, Script/Character Analysis, Choose a Scene
Class #2: Character Workshop/Scene Rehearsals
Class #3: Voice/Movement and Scene Rehearsals
Class #4: Dress Rehearsal/Performance 

Students will be given homework and worksheets to explore script and character analysis outside of class. 

This is an introductory class but is appropriate for students who have acted for a while and those that are new. Every attempt will be made to pair students up with similar experience levels. 

For students new to acting, I also suggest my Introduction to Improvisation, Private Lessons, or Comedy Club class. 

The class is mostly hands-on. I will give students feedback throughout the class. Although this class is more serious, my teaching style is very supportive.
