Actor's workshop with Susan Batson

"Like any other professional, an actor must work at his craft each and every day of the year. actors have to keep their physical strength, intelligence, emotion, imagination, sensory faculties, and empathy in good working order. Ms. Batson will walk a selected group of actors through a series of exercises in this workshop. each ex- er actor exercise contains a short text or situation defi ned by a simple given circumstance. this is followed by an emotional flexibility exercise, which combines a Sense memory, a personalization, and a Sensory condition specific to each ex-er actor scenario. in each combination actors have fifteen minutes to break down the beats of the text and prepare themselves to communicate the wordsâ meaning and the story. Actors will learn to drop in to the characterâs Need, recognize the public persona and search out the tragic flaw in the monologue. the conflict, point of crisis, climax, and conclusion are there. Participants will look at the text, look into themselves and communicate the "five câs" through words."

Participants for the Susan Batson Acting Workshop have been chosen by lottery. Audience gallery tickets are available and will be on sale at the door the day of the workshop.
