Acting

NEW! Introduction to Acting
Discussions, readings, presentations, viewings, and introductory exercises are integrated to help students grasp the many aspects of performance. Students explore the techniques of Stanislavsky, Meisner, and Chekhov; discover authors’ acting instructions; stretch vocally and physically; learn to prepare; and develop tools for performing new, dramatic realities through a process of creative growth and self-discovery. Readings from Shakespeare to the present are included.
