Scene Study/Script Analysis – How to break down the script to make deeper, more accurate choices. Your work may be very strong, but if your choice is wrong for the part, it’s useless.

Cold readings/Audition pieces – Learn how to make strong confident choices before seeing casting directors.

Improvisations – Deepen your listening skills. It’s crucial that you don’t just listen but that you listen actively. Learn to avoid using the script as a crutch and to live between the lines.
