Theatre--Workshop

Caroline McGee is returning to Lafayette to offer another workshop in The Method to actors in the Lafayette area. 

This is a basic workshop for all actors (ages 15 and adults), beginning to experienced professionals. You will be working on either one scene or one monologue from Tennessee Williams or Chekhov. The final day of the workshop will be open to (your) guests to watch the scenes/monologues as a work in progress.

Caroline´s version of The Method is a very effective and energetic way to help you deepen your realistic acting (and to put away your inner judge) visibly!  She helps you to approach the Sensory Work, a hallmark of the legendary Method technique, in a delicate and very clear way, after giving you very simple and basic tools to relax and make your body, breath and mind ready and balanced. She helps you in the most personal way to create character, avoiding cliche and stereotype, towards your own unique truth.

Due to the individualized nature of the training, spaces are limited, so register now for an early discount. The workshop is five days/3 hours per day. Dates/times TBA, the last 2 weeks of July 2010. For more info and an application: mcgeec50@yahoo.com
