Daniel is a professional actor who’s been working in the industry for over 25 years, his work ranges from big budget international movies to stage work as well as TV and VoiceOver work he’s also done numerous computer games and worked in motion capture extensively.
The style of teaching has been inspired and follows in the footsteps of the principles and theory of Bathsheba Garnet, a teacher of many years at the original Actors Centre who Daniel worked with for 13 years. Bathsheba worked closely with-Lee Strasberg, Stella Adler and Uta Hagen in 1950s New York.
The foundation of AWA IS SIMPLY-LETTING GO.
To really take the words off the page, make them your thought and then share them with the other person as opposed to reading lines at each other, being in your head and thinking about how something should or shouldn’t sound or be.
Scenes evolve organically and become what they want to be as opposed to us imposing our impression on what it is or who we are early…
Before we really understand what’s happening or what our relationships are to the other characters.
By working this way insights are gained and discoveries are made by being present and really talking to the other person in real time.
