Acting Classes for adults
oct. 7th - nov. 11th Mondays 6 pm - 7:30 pm
Curious about Acting, and the expressive art of storytelling through movement & voice?
A 6-week series exploring the foundations of Theatre Arts + Acting Technique for self-development & personal empowerment in an emotionally, culturally, and physically safe space.
During our time together we will be focusing on somatic awareness + expression practices, vocal tone + projection, ensemble building + improv games, and scene work, while also learning how this expressive art of embodied storytelling can be applied to our daily lives + relationships.
For as you’ve heard… "All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players. They have their exits and their entrances, And one man in his time plays many parts."
Price includes all classes for this 6-week Session
TOPICS WE WILL COVER:
The body as your instrument: The mechanics of movement + sound
Ensemble Building + Improv Games
Intention v.s. Impact
Somatic Storytelling
