the
Master Class Intensive
live online
The focus of this Master Class is simple:
HOW TO MAKE YOUR SCENE WORK BETTER
We will explore bold choices, rich relationships, authentic inner life and full use of your imaginations. All of this will support your work as an actor to be lively, rich and free. Be prepared to work and play hard.
Master Meisner Teacher
...and renowned Acting Coach Terry Knickerbocker, called "the acting whisperer" by casting director and Killer Casting host Lisa Zambetti, will lead an intimate group of actors through a dynamic and on-your-feet two day workshop to make their scene work better. Explore bold choices, build rich relationships, and activate the full scope of their imagination to build a more authentic inner life.
Students will work hard, play hard, and will rediscover their inner artist.
This Two Day Master Class
...is limited to twelve participants that have either professional credits or previous training. Actors of all levels are welcome to audit.
In order to register participants must register and send a copy of their headshot and resumes so that we can partner students up. (Students are welcome to apply together if they plan to work together.). Once paired, acting partners will collaborate to choose a 10-15 minute scene from a play. (No Film/Tv scenes) Terry will provide an extensive list
of scenes to choose from.
​
Students are required to start the workshop off book and rehearsed (including being fully blocked) and must be ready with appropriate costumes, dialect, props, and furniture. Participants will also be working both days so must be available to rehearse between the first and second day of class
