Summary
Are you a character... or do you just like to play one on the stage? In this course, we'll explore the process of how an actor can effectively portray a character. Through scene-work exercises, we'll dive into the motivation of a character and consider the best tactics an actor can use to communicate that to an audience. We'll unleash your creativity through improv exercises as you set your character loose, creating a story on the fly! See you on the stage!
