Acting Workshops (Starting May 18, 2013)
After a 3 year absence, Carole Zucker will be back in Montreal, teaching an acting workshop. The workshops are taught to develop the actor’s imagination, flexibility, focus, concentration, responsiveness, emotional intelligence and vitality. The workshops only work in so far as the student is committed to the process; you must be willing to do the work. We often start the workshops with breathing and meditation exercises to help students to focus on the day ahead of them. The workshops are offered to those with an interest in acting, amateur theater, those who may wish to go on to drama school and people who want to explore their creativity. Experience is not necessary.
The workshops have been given annually in Montreal, Canada, Burlington, VT, and in the UK since 1999. They are not intended as a substitute for the full conservatory experience, but are offered to those with an interest in acting, amateur theater, those who may wish to go to drama school and those who want to explore the acting process and their creativity. The workshop is invaluable for film makers who want to learn more about the acting process and how to direct actors. Commitment to the process is all that is required of the student. The Beginners Meisner Technique Workshop will be held in the Faubourg Building, starting on May 18th. A special discounted rate is available for all students in the Mel Hoppenheim School of Cinema. Check out the website to find out more about the technique, the dates, and the instructor. Check the website for more information.
