CLASS DESCRIPTION

Before you learn to run, you’ve got to learn to walk, right? Whether you are brand new to the industry or looking to get back to basics, our Fundamentals classes are designed to provide actors with the essential tools to sharpen their craft. Our classes explore the building blocks of acting, from learning about the industry to finding your emotional truth within a scene, through a mixture of lecture-based classes and exercises that allow you to put your learning into practice. Learn basic text analysis skills, scene study, and on-camera auditioning techniques such as finding your light and eyelines. Feel confident stepping into any class – be it Audition or Scene Study – with the Fundamentals behind you.

“Beverley brings an infectious energy that can be felt even through a Zoom meeting. Coming into the class with zero acting experience, Beverley made me feel welcome from the second I joined the virtual class.
 
This wasn’t a regular zoom meeting though. This. Was. Acting. Class. I had so much fun yelling and laughing at my computer, learning so much about script reading and character development with our amazing class.
 
Experienced actor or not, I would highly recommend, if you like having a good time.” – Sheldon, student
