Doing the Work: Acting and Directing Week 1

Each week, students break into a new play, working through the elements of a full rehearsal process in five days. From read-through to scene study, character development to play analysis, participants are directed through the experience of being a theater artist exploring what it takes to not just memorize lines, but truly learn a play.

Students will have the opportunity to study works ranging from Sarah DeLappe’s The Wolves to Qui Nguyen’s She Kills Monsters, with each week’s play chosen to challenge that specific class.
