They will learn about the history of acting and the skills they will need to master and, of course, what separates the professional actor from the amateur. In addition to the Meisner technique, students will be taught the basics they will need. The focus of the Meisner technique is for an actor to 'get out of their head,' so that the actor is behaving instinctively to the surrounding environment instead. The technique trains an actor to focus more on other factors rather than their internal thoughts or feelings associated with their character. The Meisner technique is considered one of the greatest acting techniques ever developed and is an approach developed by Sanford Meisner, an American theatre practitioner. The acting workshop in Washington, DC will introduce students to the fundamentals they will need to start their career and to the Meisner technique. That desire comes from discovering the struggle it takes to be good at something and a growing appreciation of how much hard work it takes to create the perfect illusion of life, again and again.” The one-day workshop will enable them to get a taste of what acting is all about and help them to decide whether it is the right choice of career.Ĭharlie Sandlan, Maggie Flanagan’s Executive Director and Head of Acting, said, “Most actors don't begin their training with the desire to be a first-rate artist. Changing career is a big step and most people considering such a step are nervous about taking the plunge.

Others may be intrigued by the possibility of acting part-time or full-time but are not sure whether acting is for them. Many who love the idea of acting will have acted before at school or college and are serious in wanting to act as a career. The workshop is aimed at anyone who is interested in the possibility of becoming an actor and at those who know that acting is the right choice for them but do not know where to start. This one-day workshop is an introduction to the Meisner technique, and to the essential requirements needed to be an actor. The Meisner Technique Studio: Washington DC and the Maggie Flanigan Studio have proudly announced a one-day professional acting workshop to be held in Washington DC.
