THE 333 - Advanced Acting: Meisner (1)

This course will introduce students to the work of Sanford Meisner and his influence on and method of training for the actor. The work will focus on the concept of the reality of doing through the exercises of Repetitions, Point of View, Independent Activities, and Improvisations which will then be applied to contemporary scene work. Designed as an opportunity to explore more fully the act of listening and responding to a stimulus (both external and internal stimuli) between actors, the work seeks to embrace the concept that acting is living truthfully under given/imaginary circumstances. Prerequisite: THE 216 . Alternate years.
