The Organic Creative Process begins with a good question and a good problem. Much like athletic performance, inspiration that leads to exceptional creative work cannot be guaranteed. However, developing a good habit leads both the artist and the athlete to an inspired state of high performance with more frequency and consistency. In this 5-day intensive led by master acting teacher and director John Strasberg, actors and directors will discover their own uniquely personal approach to bringing life to a text and a character through scene work and Organic Script Analysis, and acting teachers will learn how to make contact with their students in a way that will lead them to work more organically.
This 5-day Intensive takes place from July 11 to 15, 10:00 am to 5:00pm
Cost is $630 US for five days for full participants.
Auditors' rates are available as well for a limited number of observers - please contact the email address below.
