Advanced Acting: Scene Study Intensive

Advanced Acting: Scene Study Intensive

Workshop Description

This two-day advanced scene study intensive is designed for professional actors who want to deepen their process and expand their craft through open scene work, dramatic improvisation, scripting, and advanced contemporary scene study.

The weekend is structured around rehearsal, exploration, and intense on-your-feet scene work. Actors will work on physicalizing circumstances, sustaining presence, and building behavior that gives language its necessity.

Participants should expect an active, demanding, playful rehearsal room and be ready to work, learn and grow.
