This course will dive into the actor’s “instrument” - their body and voice - and the habits of healthy performance; establishing skills, concepts, terminology, and goals from which subsequent training can spring. Students will learn about their instrument as a complex and unified system, the mechanics of the body, and the steps performers can take to remain emotionally and physically resilient.
Learning Outcomes:
- Building an ensemble
- Vocal and physical warm-up practices
- "Taking the stage"--finding ease in front of an audience
- Establishing basic acting vocabulary
- Working solo and working with a scene partner
- Working with text
