“First of all you need a good foundation
Otherwise it's risky from the start...”
-Stephen Sondheim
A foundational scene study class focusing on the tools of acting and scene analysis to bolster your preparation for any class, rehearsal, set or audition.
When your instinct for a moment or character isn’t clear, where do you turn for guidance? This class will provide you with a set of tools to have in your back pocket that can be put to use on any material. Been at this a while and feel you got your tools? Let’s sharpen them together and go deeper. New to acting and don’t know where to begin when you get material? Let’s get to work. Wherever you are in your journey, this class will provide an even firmer foundation allowing you to live your fullest sense of truth under the imaginary circumstances.
Each actor will share a Google document with Danny, where you'll work one-on-one before and between classes. This collaborative process allows you to ask questions about the text, explore new tools, and further break down the script. This process will sharpen your preparation, ensuring that your acting flourishes when we come together in the classroom.
Weekly in-person rehearsals with your scene partner, preparation before the first class and in between each class is required for your success in this class. Actors will work every week on scenes, assigned by Danny.
Please note: This class is not The Switch and your focus will be a comprehensive study on one character in the scene.
Full class fee is due upon registration, payable through Venmo. Class fees are non-refundable and non-transferable.
Referral Credit: Share with your friends! When they register, you will receive a $15 credit toward your next class!

Once you park, go around the corner to the Santa Monica entrance (the Western entrance is closed) - we are on the second floor. There is elevator access. There is also some street parking in the area, but it can be tricky. There should be plenty of room in the garage, but space is not guaranteed so please give yourself enough time to find parking.
