This class is designed for adults who want to give acting a try, or revisit the basics in order to improve their technique! Students will participate in lively theatre games and exercises designed to free up the voice and body, stimulate creativity, promote self-confidence, and teach the building blocks of acting.

Students will use scenes and/or monologues to develop an approach for developing a detailed, multi-faceted character as an actor. Students will explore different ways into creating a character from the initial steps of text analysis all the way through fully embodying the character on stage.

Adapt your stage talents for use in voiceovers (commercials, narration, animation), where all you have is a microphone and your voice. Veteran  talent Rowell Gormon (and RLT alumn) guides you through the basics, recording script samples with instant playback and individual feedback. You'll also get practical information on recording from home and avoiding "get rich quick" schemes. More about Rowell's work at www.voice2go.com
