Class Description:
Accents for the Stage is a 4-hour intensive focused on bringing actors’ awareness to their personal vocalization, identifying the shapes of spoken sounds by listening to others, and integrating new phonation into scenes. Our fun and interactive format will allow students to listen, learn, and try on new dialects in a relaxed group atmosphere.

Continuing with the basics, we discover even more life lessons improv has to offer! We play fun games that facilitate additional insights to the correlation between everyday life and improv. These give a solid foundation to anyone wanting to be more present, connected, and spontaneous in life on OR off the stage. We play more group games that sprinkle in a bit more challenge. I'll get you good and ready for them. They are easy going, fun, AND powerful. Get your FUN on!
Great as a refresher class, too!
