BE MORE THAN FUNNY. BE LOVED.
So you're funny... but are they on the edge of their seats, breathless to see what you'll do next? They could be. You just need to get electric.
ELECTRIC CHARACTER will demand your heart, your guts, and all your fluids. We want to see how funny you can be without thinking or trying. Through play, we will explore your unique connection to the audience, the bravery required to be vulnerable, and the gratification that comes with letting go. Expose yourself (metaphorically speaking!) and make people laugh.
DAY 1: Discovering Your Innate Hilarity. How are you specifically most fun to watch? When does the audience love you most? We will hone in on the character that springs directly from your unique body, vulnerabilities and delights, the character you were born to play.
DAY 2: Being Hilarious With Others, and Occasionally With Words. Once we find the most watchable, lovable you, we will put that character into scenes with other lovable idiots. We will see how easy it is to build hilarious, simple scenes with our new hilarious, simple selves.
ONGOING SERIES: This 4-week workshop will more fully explore and hone your unique, hilarious presence, developing your relationship to others on stage, and beginning to develop performable solo and small-group material.
Get out of your head and get laughs without trying!
This workshop is very physical. Workout wear only. No shoes, no jeans. You're lucky you're allowed to wear clothes.

What Participants Have Said:
Deanna creates an incredible environment of trust and honesty which
allows you to really go there, to the depths, the weird, dark and zany
places. She has a great eye and won't let you hide or foster old patterns.
Sometimes I feel like I'm a child in front of my siblings, free to go wild.
Krista H.
Deanna is like a sculptor. She molds your talents, quirks and insecurities
into a character you can play through.
Estela G.
Deanna Fleysher's workshop focuses a powerful lens
on the performer's inner and outer world, the audience's emotional
response, and the strange, often unspoken interplay between them.
She is a tough, smart, inspiring teacher.
Alex B.
Deanna is uncanny at drawing genuineness and comedy out of every
single person. The class is engaging from beginning to end, and her way
of explaining the work is wonderfully precise and effective.
