Scene Study: Acting Through ActionActing is doing! Actions on stage and how they are performed reveal the inner life of a character most effectively. As Uta Hagen says, "The selections of the actions must tell the story of the body and soul of your character." In this challenging scene study class, students will use costume pieces and realistic props to discover how actions speak louder than words in bringing their characters to life on stage. The class will culminate in an informal presentation of scenes for family and friends.
