Graduate Acting

Catalog description

This course shifts from a focus on the actor's process to the actor's relationship to and interaction with the profession. Through work on scenes, monologues, and audition sides students learn how to work with a variety of texts that they will encounter immediately upon graduation. Focused on practical experience, students work with Agents, Managers, Casting Directors, professional directors, and playwrights to build individual experiential learning components and through production practice. The course work also includes going outside of the program to work with casting offices such as ABC Casting and Lincoln Center Casting, through which they gain valuable professional experience for auditions, on-camera and for theatre.
