Introduction to Directing
As a theater director I’ve worked in many genres including children’s shows, comedy, physical and experimental theater including devised, participatory, movement and experimental based work. Through the years I’ve developed a way to break down my artistic process. This is a great class for absolute beginners - I can introduce you to the building blocks of script analysis, working with your actors and putting on a fantastic production.
As a director I combine my experience with years of training in Stanislavski, Meisner, Alexander, Suzuki, Viewpoints, Grotowski, Mask work, puppeteering, movement work and dramaturgy. I've had experience with students and professionals.
