Drama Classes
Tue, 6 July 2004, 03:51 pmStarting on August 7th The Method studio will be offering two eight-class drama courses, both taught by Stephen Lee:
METHOD ACTING
All the basics of Stanislavski’s “method” are covered in a series of simple practical exercises. An excellent class for both beginner and more experienced student. Also, since all work is non-text based, an extremely useful way to sharpen and improve your improvisational skills. Learn how easy it is to be both a better improviser and a better actor.
The course covers:
1 The use of Images
2 Units and Objectives
3 Emotion Memory
4 Obstacles
5 Focus
6 Layering
7 Character Acting
8 Playing of Comedy
Every Saturday 10.00 am till 1.00 pm August 7 – Sept. 25 at the Blue Room, James St. $240 for eight classes.
SHAKESPEARE / CLASSICAL THEATRE
AUDITIONING FOR DRAMA SCHOOL? Want to work in-depth on characters from Shakespeare, or always longed play Earnest or Hedda?
Ÿ For more experienced actors, this practical class offers the chance to work in depth on scenes and speeches from Classical theatre. .
§ This course is based around work on students’ individual choices of monologues and scenes. This allows students to focus solely on one particular author (such as Shakespeare) or cover a broad range of eras, including Ancient Greek Drama; Jacobean theatre; Restoration Comedy; Comedy of Manners; Melodrama or the work of playwrights such as Ibsen, Chekhov, Shaw or Wilde.
§ The course will give practical help with language and verse speaking, and will explore the conventions and customs of different times and societies and hence the differences in style and approach needed by an actor when performing classical theatre.
If you are terrified by the thought of playing Shakespeare, Chekhov or Wilde, or need to work up audition pieces for WAAPA or NIDA: this is the class for you. Since most work in the course is based around studentsÂ’ playing of individual scenes, you are in full control of both the speed you work at and the level of difficulty you attempt.
Stephen Lee has a vast experience of acting and directing in London for over twenty five years. He recently taught several very popular classes at the ITA Interact and will be adjudicating this yearÂ’s State DramaFest. He recently played Prospero at The New Fortune, and directed Othello for Class Act Theatre.
Every Saturday 2.00 pm till 5.00 pm Aug 7 – Sept 25 at the Blue Room, James St. $240 for eight classes.

I've participated in both of these classes over the past year, and I got quite a lot out of both of them. They're the sort of classes you can join no matter what your current skill level, and so I would even consider doing the classes again, sometime down the track. I thought they were pretty good value for money.
Cheers,
Craig
