CLASSES and WORKSHOPS
I have taught many units and workshops throughout the years.
Below are some of my favorites.
WORKSHOPS
Learning to Fly
In this Workshop, participants will learn how to build trust and accomplish the effect of "flying" through partner lifts on stage.
Shakespeare:
An Actor's Roadmap
This workshop teaches participants a very clear way of approaching and understanding Shakespeare's work. Participants will leave with the knowledge of not only how to understand Shakespeare, but also a how-to guide of how to perform Shakespeare
