This course is designed to serve as an introduction to the Adler point of view on Acting Technique, and to refresh students who have already studied it. Combining Foundational and Rehearsal Techniques, actors will cover the basic principles of imagination, imagery, living in space, building a past, playing actions, and justification alongside application of these elements into rehearsal with an author’s text.

CLASSES: Foundation Technique with William Bremer, Rehearsal Technique with Jane Fleiss

The Ongoing Professional Workshop is a place for professionals to work between assignments. Scene study, technique, script interpretation and character development will all be explored in a workshop designed to challenge an experienced player’s skills in reading, analyzing, and performing a piece of dramatic or cinematic literature. Choices about character, intent, conflict and dramatic arc will be challenged, tested and challenged again via practical application (scene work), rehearsal exercises, and socratic method. Attendees are invited to bring in material for audition prep, performance prep, scene work or monologue work. Not only is this the place for established professionals to stay sharp, it is also a safe space for emerging artists to test themselves and perfect their craft in the company of veteran players.

Instructor: Miguel Perez

Option 3: April 7th – April 28th

Option 4: May 5th – May 26th

This class is a scene study workout that uses challenging scenes from theatre and film (and sometimes TV) scripts to explore technique and deepen acting craft. This Stella Adler® program will challenge actors with exercises specific to each student’s performance and the scene they are exploring, and provide tools to add to the actor’s arsenal. This class moves beyond the fundamentals of Scene Study 1. It is devoted entirely to contemporary scene work and provides a greater variety of characters and situations that take the actor’s skill to a higher level.

The Scene Study Master Class is a place for professionals to work. This class will explore in-depth Scene Study, with particular focus on the vitality of moment-to-moment experience and the full pursuit of actions. The goal is to create provocative characters that animate the text and uniquely showcase the actor. The intrinsic value of this communal exploration is that creative discoveries made by one actor are applicable to all.
