Congrats! You booked the role!…now what? In this brand new AT class, you’ll go from developing a character, to rehearsing a scene, to a simulated first preview performance…all in one session! The course is designed for students craving a deep-dive into character development, text analysis, and all the other skills you’ll need to thrive while practicing a play.
Taught by two of the Industry’s BEST—
the incomparable ADAM CHANLER-BERAT (Next to Normal, Gossip Girl)
& KIRSTEN WYATT (Shrek, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel)
WHAT’S THE CLASS STRUCTURE?
The structure of this class will be loosely based off how we rehearse for plays in the professional-world:
Week 1- The Audition! We’ll do a mock audition and have students cold-read roles from a variety of plays. We’ll then cast the roles and collaborate on scenes to focus on and perform for the session.
Week 2- Character Presentations and Table Read. Each student will create a character dossier and creatively present it to the class.Then students will then participate in a "table read” of their scene where the focus will be on listening and working through the text.
Weeks 3 & 4- Doing the Work! At this point, scenes will be off book and Kirsten and Adam will act as directors, guiding actors through the process of getting the scene on its feet and refining it as we approach the final presentation.
Week 5- First Preview! Students will have the opportunity to do a final run through of their scenes and then Invite friends and family for the first preview! Students may also choose to film their scene to add to their reel.
WHO SHOULD TAKE THIS CLASS?
This is the perfect class for a student who has primarily been focusing their energy on the audition process and may be craving the experience of digging into a character and scene work after having already been cast. At its core, this is a process oriented, deep-dive technique class, but with the added layer of a simulated rehearsal process culminating in a public presentation. We’ll also provide the opportunity for students to record the presentation if they’re in need of new footage for their website or social media.
