INTENSIVE DESCRIPTION

Becoming is a 6-week workshop for actors seeking an in-depth study of their expressive body. Designed by a contemporary dancer and movement coach, the focus will be on grounding the actor through image-making, choreographic positioning and body timing. Each 3-hour session begins with a movement warm-up followed by creating motivational scores and time-based character developments. The second part is an experimental approach to scene study that enables the actor to find rhythmic physicality and body awareness. Emphasis is on the actor producing alternative interpretations with their text and movement through situational and behavioral strategies. The workshop aims for the actor to consistently maintain the act of becoming.
