A NON- PROFESSIONAL ACTOR PREPARES

This workshop is designed for directors who work with non-professional actors or anyone who wants to deepen their understanding of the acting process through practical experience.
Various acting techniques from Stella Adler, Sanford Meisner, Uta Hagen and Michael Chekov, among others, will be used, with Stanislavski's teachings forming the basis of our work together.
Questions we will explore:
How to build trust and focus?
How to give simple and clear direction that invites rather than intimidates?
How do we stop “performing” and start being?

WHEN:
Saturday & Sunday, September 13–14, from 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM
Costs: 95 Euro

Workshop is done in English.
