May 12 | ACTING with Lauren Schaeffer
Class Description
Let's focus on two-person and small group scenes! Come ready to jump in and practice as if you’re preparing for a performance, learning everything from blocking notation to making your dialogue flow naturally with a scene partner. We’ll also experiment how to play your character’s objective, interpret a director’s guidance, and collaborate with your scene partner to build an electric, authentic performance. This is a fully interactive, hands-on class—no lectures here!
