Class Description: Believable characters – where do we begin? Legendary acting teacher Uta Hagen says to start with yourself, and provides a roadmap: The Nine Questions. Using four of her Object Exercises, we’ll explore answering these questions in order to create the specificity of a fully fleshed-out human with a reason behind everything we do. 

In this class, you will: 

  • Examine your own behavior in self-taped “object exercises” 

  • Deepen moment to moment specificity in slices of life starting with the “written assignment” format

  • Sharpen awareness of your environment by transferring your work from a private space to a virtual space in live redirects

  • Explore how these principles are directly applicable to scripted material 

Limited enrollment. Class is weekly for six (6) weeks.

Please note: NO REFUNDS.

“It’s not about losing yourself in the role. It’s about finding yourself in the role.” — Uta Hagen
