About this Event
If you’ve ever felt stuck in a scene, disconnected from your partner, or trapped in your own head, Meisner training may be the key to unlocking the actor you’re meant to be.
Based on the Stanislavsky system, Meisner technique is especially renowned for its effectiveness with emotional preparation and "unblocking" actors. Using the principles of Meisner technique, award-winning director Isaac Byrne teaches a "moment to moment" approach in order to help actors respond truthfully and emotionally without forcing or faking it.
Isaac's students have gone on to appear on Broadway, nationally recognized and award winning Regional Theaters, as well as award winning Television shows and Major Motion Pictures. Now it's your chance to sharpen your acting skills, learn from the best, and connect with fellow creatives in a fun, supportive environment. Don't miss out on this unique opportunity to grow your craft hands-on!
*As Isaac is based in New York, he will be teleconferencing in to lead the workshop.
