ACTING TECHNIQUES - SANFORD MEISNER

 

**BY SIGNING UP BEFORE DECEMBER 15TH YOU WILL RECEIVE AN EXTRA 4 WEEKS OF CLASSES
.
In our Meisner Technique Acting Class students will learn the foundation of Sanford Meisner acting techniques: exercises in repetition independent activities, emotional preparation & scene work. You will learn the core of our work, the first half of each Acting technique class is devoted to a sequence of concentration exercises to develop actors’ relaxation and effective memory: both sensory and emotional. The sense memory exercises utilize imaginary objects that most people deal with every day, so that actors can begin to create a simple reality for themselves. The second half of the class consists of scene and monologue work, during which time students apply what they have learned in their exercises to their roles. Improvisation is used to help create actual experience.
