Creating Connection: Partner Exercises
Friday October 25, 2024 6:00pm - 7:00pm EDT
B17 Open Studio
The ability to be present with another human being is essential for an actor’s success as a storyteller.  We do scenes with other actors all the time, and are asked to share love, anger, fear, injury and heartbreak, and so much more, when we are performing.  How are we present, open and confident to tell these stories with our scene partners?  It starts one moment at a time.  In this workshop we will lead you through a series of exercises with a partner, some physical, some textual, to create opportunities for you to strengthen the skills it takes to be present and open with another.  Be prepared to work in pairs and we will partner you when you arrive.
