ACTING THROUGH ETUDES

October 26-28, 2017
This three-day intensive workshop, taught by expert Tatyana Khaikin, is a practical and theoretical introduction to the Etude Method as taught in the best Russian acting schools.
The Etude Method developed by Konstantin Stanislavsky in the beginning of the 20th Century forever changed acting, inspiring actors and theatre practitioners for decades. One of the most important discoveries of Stanislavsky are etudes, an acting technique developed by the Russian master, and the glue that keeps his method together. Widely used in Russian theatre, etudes empower the creative agency of the actor, reveal the psychology of the character and unlock the emotional life of the scene. |
