Welcome to One Acts Advanced Class w/Paul.

In this special one hour series, four upper teens will learn by performance.  From getting the script to performance of the script, our advanced teen actors will train in all aspects of substantive acting.  Unlike our regular Monologues and Scenes Class for teens, this class will boast a final one act viewing at the studio for parents and friends.  This special class offers deeper insight into truth-centered expression and realism. Primary focus is on the feeling behind the words (not the words themselves) and the internalization of emotions before expressing them.  You’ll learn to ask more questions and get more specific in your monologue and scene work.

The class also explores instinctive behavior in relation to the actors’ surroundings by identifying sensory ques and grounding oneself. Additional focus is given to consciously manipulating elements of breath, beat, and pace.

*Note, this class requires strict attendance.  Each class will build on the other;  should attendance become an issue, final class will turn to a ‘work in progress’ class for viewers in Week 9, for parent education.  If you register for this class, you may take the full day intensive with lunch at 1:30pm.  ATNY will follow up with a phone call to specify the advanced class or regular teens class.
