ABOUT THIS WORKSHOP:
A hands-on, 4-hour workshop that dives deeper into the core principles of the Meisner acting technique. Meisner trains actors to move their attention off themselves and onto their scene partner, so you can observe, listen truthfully, and respond to what's actually happening in the moment.
"Acting is living truthfully under imaginary circumstances." – Sanford Meisner
