Governors Kim Estes & Kate Linder (Performers), and Governors Anya Adams & Mary Lou Belli (Directors), along with their Peer Group Executive Committees, invite members of the Performers Peer Group to:
Connecting with Actors: A Directors Workshop
We are seeking performers to volunteer to be part of the Directors Peer Group Workshop. Performers will rehearse and perform scenes with/for directors from the Television Academy.
About the workshop:
Television Academy Directors will be participating in a three-day workshop to learn how to understand the acting process and better work with actors. Actors are needed for the culminating project, when directors get a chance to take what they've learned and apply it to rehearsing a scene.
What you will do:
Memorize a two-minute, three-person scene before the workshop
Work with a director (or two) and two other actors to rehearse the scene during the workshop (1:00 - 2:30 PM Saturday)
Perform the scene for workshop participants and peers (2:30 - 3:30 PM Saturday)
Meet, mingle and network with fellow Directors and Performers peer group members
