$125 (payable by check or with credit card via Paypal)

Location:
The Hutchins School, 24 Mosher St., South Portland, ME

2 great afternoons, 3 great scripts. An intensive weekend workshop taught by writer-director Kate Kaminski devoted to the study of the screenplay from an actor’s perspective. Open to actors of all levels. $125 (payable by check or credit card via Paypal).

Saturday session - 12:00 noon to 4:00 pm
Sunday session - 10:00 am to 2:00 pm

CLASS DETAILS:
•Everyone is assigned three scripts. You print them, read them, and bring them with you.
•Together we work through the scripts, round-table style. I guide you through what makes each a strong screenplay, especially for the actor.
•No scene partner rehearsal, no lines to memorize; this is a weekend devoted to giving you the tools you need to get past the words and see the “skeleton” of the script, so you can pull a scene apart and make your own acting stronger.
