Acting Basics Workshop Course #1

(日本語は英語に続く) This Sunday will be the final day of NP’s Acting Basics Workshop Course #1. We are so impressed with everyone’s progress. It has been really interesting to see this class learn and develop. They have embraced every exercise their acting coach, Ana Valdes Lim, throws at them (even the silly ones:) and exceeded expectations.

The class is a mix of first-time performers and regular cast members with a wide range of backgrounds, ages, and cultures. It’s one of the most diverse groups we’ve had, and it’s beautiful to watch the way everyone gets along, supports each other, and works together.

Course #1 has laid a solid foundation and shown participants the importance of training your body for performance. Everything from movement and awareness to breathing and improvisation has been covered.

In Course #2 will continue to incorporate physical activities, but more time will be spent on preparing actors to perform convincingly, authentically, and effectively on stage.

We will be opening up registration again for people who would like to join us for Course #2. We will be starting up again on Nov. 5th, 2023. Please visit our website to see the schedule and course details:

Whether you’re interested in performance, presentation, public speaking, job interviews, or just being a better communicator, there are a lot of valuable exercises that will be presented in Course #2. Please don’t miss the opportunity to learn in a supportive environment with excellent classmates and a superb teacher.

演技の基礎ワークショップ：コース１は今週日曜日が最終日です。参加された方々はステップを徐々に踏みながら、次々へと繰り広げられるアクティング練習を柔軟に受け入れ、回を重ねるごとに上達していっています。さすが、アナ先生の指導は評判通りとてもプロフェッショナル。無理なく楽しく参加でき、あっという間の３時間です。

今回のワークショップには初めて演技を試みる方から、既に舞台経験がある方まで様々な人たちが参加しています。年齢差や異文化など７カ国からバックグラウンドの違う人々で構成され、同じ志を共有し、助け合い、協調し合って練習を重ねています。そして、それはグローバルで国際的な空間です。

コース１ではパフォーマンスの基礎固めとして体の動きや息の使い方や即興など、体に馴染ませることの大切さを学びました。

コース２は引き続き舞台上での基礎的な動作の練習を重ね、効果的な表現方法なども取り入れていきます。

コース２への参加ご希望の方、受付中です。詳細はウェブサイトをご覧いただきお申し込みください。
