A Guide to a Director’s Process in Rehearsal

January

with Dámaso Rodríguez

This 4-hour workshop is designed to share tools for being prepared, collaborative, and productive during the fast-paced professional regional theatre rehearsal process. The workshop will include: an overview of the audition room, rehearsal room, and on-set collaboration standards; textual analysis techniques for classical and contemporary scripts; an approach to the first day of rehearsal “on your feet” (i.e., Blocking Rehearsals); and simple approaches to making bold, active acting choices. This is a practical workshop that will yield results for actors, as well as directors looking for techniques to streamline their tablework or staging process.

January 14, from 5:30 to 9:30pm, Thursday  (1 class)

Suggested Accompanying Classes: How to Be Your Own Director, Acting II, On Camera Acting, Acting in the Zoomiverse, or Improv for Collaborating, Creating and Connecting
