This course will expand the actor's capacity to invigorate moments on stage by exploring and inspiring actors with possibilities that go beyond Stanislavski's realism, Brecht's barrier breaking theatre, or our interpretation of classical theatre. It will empower actors to actively determine how a story is told in performance. Ultimately it will give them the tools to merge their truth with that of the character and to rely on full awareness and connection to that nightly audience in order to fuel their performance.
