Dany Rousseau brings Method Acting for Young Performers to King’s Theatre with a scaled-down introduction to the Strasberg Method!
There will be a Final Dramatic Performance on the last day for friends and family.
So what is Method Acting? As Lee Strasberg said, “Method Acting is what all actors have always done whenever they acted well. But The Method-it’s how you get there.” At its core, Method Acting is a systematic approach to training the living material that is the actor’s “instrument,” as well as a means for preparing a character. The Method trains actors to use their physical, mental and emotional self in the creation of a character and stresses the way in which personal experience can fire the actor’s imagination. It eschews clichés and pursues individual authenticity, and a reality deeply grounded in the given circumstances of the script.
Through this workshop, these Method-based exercises & strategies will both develop the content of your young actor’s talent and provide a roadmap to their creation of a character. They will learn to use their own life experiences in their creative imagination to infuse each acting choice with genuine thought, desire, sensation, action and feeling resulting in thoughtful, in-depth behavior. We will delve into this systematic approach to actor training together, and conclude the week as “Method Actors” in a Dramatic Showcase.
Price: $195 + tax per participant for the week
