Scene Study Acting Class – Master the Art of Performance
This is more than just an acting class — it’s a deep dive into the craft of storytelling. In our Scene Study Class, you’ll explore the nuances of great scripts and discover what it takes to bring characters to life with authenticity, emotional truth, and stage presence. Whether you’re a beginner eager to learn or an experienced performer ready to refine your skills, this class gives you the tools to elevate your work!
Through hands-on scene work, you’ll break down scripts beat-by-beat, uncover subtext, and identify your character’s objectives, obstacles, and relationships. You’ll learn how to approach a scene with a professional actor’s mindset — from script analysis to in-the-moment connection — while developing the emotional depth and vulnerability that make performances unforgettable.
We’ll focus on:
