Acting
Directing Story Telling Workshops Thematic Workshops Teacher Workshops Build your own! |
Fundamentals of acting : movement, voice, text work, eye communication, character embodiment and interpretation. I can work with school children, youth, all the way to retired seniors. I can also work with special needs kids. The workshop can be a one-hour initiation to drama or several workshops over a week or several weeks.
Dramaturgy, breaking down a play, purposeful movement, how to follow the process of going from the page to the final production, working with your actors and more. Workshop over several sessions which covers acting fundamentals to improvisation to then using the improvisation towards the final play. Self-Esteem Workshops, Social Justice, Communication Skills (for children and for adults). Possible uses for a communication skills workshop for children: vocal training to improve diction and pitch of the voice, listening skills, observation skills, conflict-resolution, posture and physical composure, eye communication. Possible uses for a communication skills workshop for adults: job interviews, self-confidence, vocal and movement training to improve communication in the work place and in one's community. Developing theatre techniques to improve communication and command of the classroom; skills to engage children and youth in class; Creating dynamic ways to introduce a topic or subject matter; using theatre arts to enhance curriclum. I believe there is NO theme or topic that can’t be explored by the medium of drama! Pitch a theme, an event or a concept to me and I’ll come up with hopefully more than one idea for you to offer as options! I have participated in two of the Kennedy Center's Artists as Educators Seminar, Laying a Foundation:Defining Arts Integration. ![]()
