TH 221 - Acting III: Basic Scene Study and Acting Craft

Institution:

Emerson College

Subject:

Description:

Intensive scene study class builds on TH 123 and TH 124 (movement, improvisation, and voice) to ensure a personal commitment in the way students approach and experience scene work and acting technique (Meisner, Michael Chekhov, etc.) from the canon of various plays. We will emphasize the text, context, subtext, and the given circumstances of each play studied. Actors' scene breakdown, intentions, actions, obstacles, objectives, and moment-to-moment work will be some of the tools used to bring scenes from these plays to life. Prerequisites: TH 124 and permission. (Fall semester)
