Deepen your understanding of Meisner's core definition of acting: ‘Acting is living truthfully under a given set of circumstances’ as well as strengthen your ability to act freely and work from moment to moment whilst reaching greater emotional depth. We will move the technique forward into working with 'the givens' including text work and rehearsal technique, giving you an opportunity to experience how it feels ‘living’ each moment rather than merely ‘believing’ it.
