This class is By Audition/Invite only. Please contact ATNY (todd@actorstechniqueny.com) for consideration.

In this class we learn to understand how to attack a script.  This class is a must for all on camera actors. The actor does not determine where the scene goes.  You need to loosen your wanting to control the copy and the scene and allow it to go where it naturally goes.  You must be vulnerable and focus on all things external, especially the people you are speaking to or want something from.   Yes, this is why improvisation is a must.  You must have the courage to react spontaneously to what’s coming at you.  Dramatic and Comedic Scripts.

Stop trying to be so interesting in your acting.  Actors who try to show emotion are bad. In this class, you’ll learn to react instinctively, understand given circumstances, and continually hone your scene objective. Meisner Focus. For quality, class size will be limited to 6 students.  Should demand exceed this, ATNY will open a second private class for actors to keep quality control.

*ATNY’s Final Industry Showcase is now optional. Current fall actors who would like to participate in the multi-industry showcase will get a reduced showcase price from those not in our program, and must register separately.  You may do this at the beginning of the term or anytime up to the showcase.  Final showcase consists of 3-Rooms of Agents, Managers and Casting Directors.
