[jeffrey bihr]

Only two spots left!

SCENE STUDY/CHARACTER LAB -  A Master Class for Professional Actors
  Passionate and comic two and three-person scenes varied in style and 
period, focusing on honesty of interpretation,
and completeness of character. This is a rigorous acting workshop in 
constructing a three-dimensional character
that is at once appropriate for the parameters of the scene and the 
intentions of the playwright as well as
transformative for the actor in body,voice, gesture, emotional state, 
etc.
Create a 'new' human being that walks and moves, speaks and sounds, 
dreams and emotes differently from you.
  Discover new approaches to voice and timbre, body and gesture, image 
and emotion.
  Techniques include working from psychological gestures (Michael 
Chekhov), shifting centers, full face photographs,
   collected 'live studies' vocal and timbral shifts, rhythmic and 
metabolic changes, etc. as well as specific, deft and profound scene 
work.
  These techniques are practical, detailed, and the underlying 
curriculum is designed to give the student a new set of tools to aid in 
theatrical transformation. The work is focused, detailed, challenging 
and fun.
  Fridays 7 - 10pm  from June 20 to August 8 - 8 classes. ( no class 
july 4);  $375


  Peace.
