What you'll learn in this scene study class:

Acting 101: Beginning Technique & Scene Study w/ Maggie Phillips, Profesional Actress, Acting Teacher & Coach


If you've been thinking about starting a career as an actor, Acting 101 is the perfect way to start off. You'll work with Maggie Phillips who will introduce you to a variety of approaches to Acting, Stage basics, Terminology and the Craft of Acting.


Acting begins with the ability to be your authentic self in the present moment. Maggie will begin with imagination exercises and improvisation to help you be present, truthful, and therefore more compelling onstage or onscreen. You'll then work your way into text and performing scenes, covering the basics of scene analysis: discovering character, point-of-view, working off your partner, making it personal, finding objectives, and building up circumstances and emotional stakes.


These techniques will help you prepare for roles and auditions, and find your authenticity as an actor.

School Notes:
Class end time will vary depending on the number of actors and the scenes that are assigned. Registrants are advised to budget extra time, as class time may run over.

    Anonymous review on 3/9/2019
    It's a very basic course, like really basic. Sure you will get to do one little scene but honestly, you are better off buying some books on acting and reading some articles and signing up for something actually more specific or challenging. I just think it was too expensive for such a basic intro class.
