ARTIST SCRIPT EXPLORER LAB

 

NEXT WORKSHOP COMMENCES MAY 26 - REGISTER YOUR INTEREST BELOW!

​

Led by award-winning actor, director, writer Jay James-Moody, this exclusive and intimate lab series will assist you to develop and explore techniques that support your acting potential, and examine the practical work expected of actors before stepping into the spotlight.

 

The Script Explorer Lab is about more than what happens on stage. We will dive into the essential text-based homework expected of artists outside of auditions and rehearsals; experimenting with and refining your process; and working toward unlocking your unique artistic voice and process.

 

In our select group, participating artists will nominate a scene from a play or musical. Over the course of six weekly, three hour workshops, our artist group will engage in a dynamic and detailed exploration of these chosen texts. Each week, a different artist’s proposed text will form the focus of the session. 

 

Together we'll dissect the text, deciphering the author's intentions, and mastering techniques to prepare offers for your directors. In addition to this principal focus on the actor’s homework, the sessions will include open discussions and sharing of skills, experience, and expectations when it comes to the rehearsal room.

 

In a casual environment brimming with openness and curiosity, all questions are not only welcome but encouraged. Whether you're a seasoned performer or new to the stage, this series of workshops promises an enriching experience that will empower you to shine in every performance and become the kind of actor that is invaluable to supporting the vision of authors and directors.
