Virtual Course via Zoom

Mondays

11:30 am - 1:00 pm

$60 per person
Ages: 16+

As a class (Zoom or some other program), we will explore believable and purposeful movement, vocal techniques and acting principles. We will use the concepts of given, imaginary and research-based circumstance in a text that lead to useful and effective actor choices. Each student will work on one short monologue and one longer one.
