Chekhov Technique - Ongoing - Winter 2020

The Chekhov Technique Winter 2020 Ongoing Class meets for eight sessons on:

Wednesdays, 1/22 - 3/4, 7:00-9:30pm

In this class, students will explore the Michael Chekhov Technique and its vibrant, effective,  highly physical toolkit.  This class that teaches the fundamentals of how to act via the Michael Chekhov Technique and others. The class meets for eight weeks each season and is expected to be an ongoing class for the serious actor. The class is leveled to the learners so the students may be a mix of experience levels. More experienced actors will be challenged at a higher level than newer actors. To enroll in the course, you should have at least had a course in acting fundamentals, an” Acting 101,” if you will, as you’ll need to understand concepts like goals, obstacles, and tactics to proceed in the course effectively.

Each week, actors will work with a different tool from the Michael Chekhov toolkit, though certain tools may spread out over more classes as the needs of the students require. Each tool will be explored via in-class exercises, lecture, discussion, and scene work, and the 8-week session will culminate in a showcase of the in-class scenes and actor pairings.
