About the Workshops
World renowned Acting Teacher and Coach Terry Knickerbocker, recently hailed as “New York’s top acting coach” by Entertainment World is coming to Atlanta to lead an “Intro to Meisner Class” and an “Advanced Scene Work Masterclass” at Drama Inc.
Session A - Intro to Meisner
Foundational Training for Everyone
Monday – Thursday
9:30 am – 1:30 pm
This class will help you to get out of production mode and focus on process; thereby helping to you gain confidence in your work. Terry’s approach to Meisner Foundation Work is to focus on truthfulness, fearlessness, and playfulness. It is this approach that helped guide Sam Rockwell to his Oscar Winning turn in “Three Billboards . . . ”
Whether new to acting or a seasoned performer you will grow to understand both yourself and your work more thoroughly.
Session B - Advanced Scene Work
Transform Your Scene Work from Good to Extraordinary
Monday – Thursday
2:30 pm – 6:30 pm
An actor is only as good as their ideas and their ability to execute those ideas when the director says “action,” or the stage lights come up.
In this Advanced Scene Work Masterclass Terry will guide students through the process of making every moment count and creating lively, rich, and truly memorable performances.
By gaining better control of their instrument and growing in their confidence students will work towards performances that transcend the skill of acting into an art. Work is to focus on truthfulness, fearlessness, and playfulness. It is this approach that helped guide Sam Rockwell to his Oscar Winning performance in Three Billboards Outside of Ebbing, Missouri.
