This class will de-mystify the process of approaching a role, freeing the body, freeing the voice and becoming more comfortable onstage and in front of an audience.

The theories of Practical Aesthetics (an acting technique created by David Mamet and William H. Macy to help actors approach roles in a practical, accessible and straightforward way). and Viewpoints(a logical approach to creating aesthetically free and dynamic movement on stage) will be merged to push actors physically, vocally and emotionally into new avenues of growth.
