Online Summer Program Core Courses  

Our Online Five-Week Program is built on three foundational online courses, we call Core Courses. Each course is customized to train beginning actors up to advanced actors.


Online Core Courses

Acting & Scene Study

Training: Excite and release the storyteller inside of you! Discover and expand the relaxed, free and truthful use of self in imaginary circumstances; develop trust in spontaneous, moment-to-moment reactions and learn how to apply these techniques to dramatic texts.

Coursework: Exercises for relaxation, concentration and sensitivity to fellow actors, as well as internal and external stimuli to achieve focus and involvement, leading to dramatic analysis, improvisation and scene study.

Voice for the Actor

Training: Add strength and emotional range to the natural voice; develop the voice as an instrument of communication on and off stage.

Coursework: Principles of voice production are applied through structured exercises for optimal vocal health, audibility, breath efficiency, articulation, intonation, resonance and phrasing.

Movement for the Actor

Training: Develop the body as an instrument for the actor in order to engage in dynamic physical expressivity.

Coursework: Movement techniques and exercises are taught to increase flexibility and to develop the actors’ imagination, muscular coordination and control.
