Master Acting Workshop July 27-31, 2009

Lee Strasberg: “The Method is simply what all actors have done when acting well.”

The Workshop will be 3 hours’ long per day and conducted for five days at ULL, Monday-Friday July 27-31, 2009, time of day TBA. Cost is $500 total for the week-long session with a limited number of partial scholarships available.

• Warm up exercises

• Imagination and creative games
• Creating atmosphere on stage
• Emotional memory and emotional awareness
• Partner interaction
• Stage improvisation

Based on Lee Strasberg’s legendary Method technique of actor training, this class will mirror the famed Strasberg program for young actors in New York City, where Caroline served as Director for both their Professional and New York University BFA Acting Programs from 2006-2009. (www.strasbergny.com for more info)

From Angelina Jolie, Adam Sandler and James Dean to Marilyn Monroe, Al Pacino and Robert DeNiro, the great actors have studied and applied Strasberg’s exercises to invoke a sense of truth and an original interpretation devoid of clichéd and dull expression. Beyond specific actor training, the Method inspires the personal growth of each student in developing self-discipline, concentration and creativity.

Caroline is looking for imaginative, curious and committed students. Beginning to advanced levels are encouraged to apply since the exercises are individually oriented. Enrollment is limited; apply asap to guarantee a place.

To reserve a place: send form and mail $100 check deposit (paid to the order of Caroline McGee), to Caroline McGee at 442 W. 57 St. #3H, NY, NY 10019.
