During this 5 evening workshop we will explore how to build a character, based on identifying the need and public personas of individuals. We will also work on emulating physical specificities to enhance the embodiment of a character. In the meantime, we will pursue our work on improving your emotional fluidity and find the behavior truth moment to moment.

The Actor’s Roadmap

Based on the work of Sandford Meisner and Lee Strasberg among others, Lucas helps students to find their way of acting through moments of truth, reconnecting with their emotions, taking the emphasis away from self and focusing on partners on stage. He also teaches how to build characters, from identifying their primal need, to the way they walk. Being an actor is being a creator, giving script pages a soul, a body and emotions. Being an actor is making smart choices. Being an actor is believing in the unbelievable and make the audience believe with you. But, before all, being an actor is playing, having fun, and reconnecting with the inner child that you might have forgotten.
