Own the Space in the Audition Room
with Holly Cinnamon
Thursday, February 27th, 1-3pm
Class Fee: $40
Develop concrete tools and practices to find resources in any room so that you can own the space you are auditioning in, from the moment you walk into the room to the moment you leave. Discover how various resources that are always available to your attention in any space can serve to ground you or inspire you, make you feel big or small. Practice foregrounding and backgrounding different stimuli in your field of attention, so that you can resist being sucked into the stimuli that make you nervous and instead find support in the stimuli that center you in your work. This way, you will completely own your attention, your body and your work in the room, and the people behind the table will not be able to keep their attention away from your presence, as you will own your time in the room and own their attention in the space.
This workshop is geared towards actors attending EPAs during audition season. Material is actor's choice: you can bring in a monologue you audition with, sides you have worked on or are auditioning with or request sides to be assigned. We will provide a reader.
