Description | This studio course provides a foundation in acting for the stage,
giving the student basic techniques in freeing the imagination,
body, and voice. Techniques include relaxation, focus, sense
memory, physical awareness, vocalization, improvisation, and
character analysis. Using acting principles drawn from
Stanislavski and movement exercises from Viewpoints students will
interpret classic and contemporary scenes from underrepresented
playwrights of color not typically found in the traditional
canon. Keywords:acting, studio, stage |
