"Directing is like putting together a collage." - Ethan Hawke.

A director's job is the same as that of an actor...to tell a story. But while the actor tells the story from their own speaking, actions, and reactions, the director thinks about creating a living and breathing world with actors and set and props and costumes and music that should all work to support the text and story.

This NEW class will explore the process of directing from conception to execution. Learn the fundamentals of script analysis. Practice guiding and enabling actors as they build characters. Establish the aesthetic of the design in order to create a cohesive environment that serves the play while adding your own style and point of view. Each student will have the opportunity to direct a duet of two other students from the class.

This class is perfect for actors who think they might like to direct one day or want to understand how the other side thinks.

This class is limited to nine students—no exceptions!

Tuition will NOT be refundable after the first week of classes.
