Acting classes
Mon, 6 Apr 2009, 02:26 pmTwo classes for actors will be offered this May/June by noted Perth actor/director Stephen Lee
When: May 2,16,23, 30 and June 6
Where: Blue Room Theatre; James St; Northbridge
What: Two separate classes will available:
1 Method Acting (11 am - 1.45)
A five week course covering the essentials of Stanislavski’s Method
· Images and Emotion memory
· Finding Truth in performance
· Units and Objectives
· Obstacles to Action
· Layering
We shall also cover the basics of comedic performing.
Method is not (as some feel) a load of arty-farty pretentious rubbish, but a common sense aid to an actor in using his or her imagination. This course will be a wonderful help both to any young actor starting out and the more experienced performer who wishes to hone and discipline their work.
2 Playing Shakespeare (2.15 – 5.00pm)
A five week course covering the performing of Shakespeare or any Elizabethan/Jacobean works.
· Elizabethan Language
· Verse speaking
· The Snowball effect
· Conventions of the Shakespearean stage.
Love acting, but always been scared off by playing the Bard? Or just want to explore and refine your skills a little further? Stephen Lee has thirty years of experience directing and teaching Shakespeare (including Lee Strasberg Studio and Italia Conti drama schools in London), and has directed over thirty Shakespearean productions. Let him inspire your understanding of the greatest dramatist of the English speaking world.
How much: each five week course will cost $200. Places will be limited, so book quickly.
