Join us for a workshop intensive for the Dreyfoos School of the Arts Theatre Acting audition for preparation and honing the skills required. The intensive will be on December 7th from 12:30pm -3:30pm at The Lake Worth Playhouse in the Rehearsal Hall. Students will need to have two monologues prepared and ready to be critiqued by the instructor. Each monologue should be 45 seconds long. Students will also engage in some physical improvisation exercise led by the instructor. Applicants will be challenged to a redirect (perform in a different way with specific direction) on one of the prepared monologues.
Evaluation of the monologue will be based on:
Energy & Emotional Investment
Focus, concentration and control
Clarity of storytelling (sense of imagination, discovery, communicating the meaning of the words)
Specific and appropriate character choices (physical gesture, style of piece)
Honest and Truthful behavior in performance
Vocal quality (volume, diction, breath support, inflection)
Evaluation of the Physical Improvisation Exercises will be based on:
Ability to make clear, bold, specific physical choices that demonstrate freedom of movement, the ability to follow impulse and the willingness to take risks.
Evaluation of the redirect will be based on:
Willingness to take direction and ability to follow instructions
Success implementing the requested direction
Monologues must be from a published play. Internet monologues or original works are unacceptable.
Students may bring a bottle of water and a small snack as breaks will be given.
