Description
If you have ever wondered how to get your ideas of a role into reality then this class is for you. How do we turn the dream of how it would be to play the part into an embodied reality?
This class will help!
Based on thirty years of acting, teaching, and directing in fringe, Hollywood, RSC, and beyond, Ed Woodall has distilled what he has learned into a method called The Grid.
You take an idea, you allow yourself to move it. You expand on the movement and then you draw it! You recreate the movement in sound and then you apply it to the text, to the character, or to the intention and you will be amazed at how much more talented you are than you think.
Bring a short text to work on and clothes you can move easily in.

He trained with Jacques Lecoq.
