Note from the Director
Preparation will only be a memorized monologue so that we can apply choices to specific material. I may bring in a simple scene for partners as well.
Actors are always asked to make a choice. Yet few actors have enough craft to know what choices are available to them. During the workshop I introduce (and hand out) a list of categories of choices that you can access during rehearsal, choices that you experiment with to see if they shed light on the material or character in some important way.
During the workshop, we prepare, try out, and assess some of those choices, with special attention paid to depth commitment to each choice. Some are internal, some are outside-in, all require some form of preparation for true experimentation and assessment.
It's all part of how to rehearse, an obvious need, yet not-often-taught skill in classes or even top conservatory programs. Actors also acquire freedom, confidence, focused intensity and a consistent depth of commitment when they truly experiment with a choice. All part of the lesson.
Hope this helps. Let me know if there are further questions. Peter
