Alexander’s own quest began as an attempt to solve his vocal issues. Later on he realized that body\, mind\, and breath were all part of the same complex organism\, which he called “self”.  In order to look at voice and breath we need to first understand how the body works. In this workshop\, Fabio will guide an exploration of ideas and activities to encourage the expansion of the back—lengthening of the spine and widening of the back ribs—to produce sound and movement with more ease and flow. Whether on stage or on set\, the principles are the same: A longer and wider back will enable more support\, strength\, and freedom. In the latter part of each session\, participants will be invited to bring in film or TV sides or text to work from\, exploring one-on-one adjustments in the work. Sessions run Thursdays and Fridays from 1pm-4pm. \n[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_column_text] \nAbout Fabio Tavares\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text] \nFabio Tavares (he/him) is a Brazilian artist who’s been obsessed with the human body in action from a very young age.

Writing can often be isolating and working from home can be distracting. Our hope is to establish a designated space to work collectively each week\, making the writing process more communal\, offering accountability\, and creating an opportunity to hear work aloud. The first two hours of the meeting will be devoted to independent work. You are welcome to use that time however you’d like. There will be three prompts offered at the beginning of each session to inspire if needed. \nThe third hour will be devoted to sharing and reading. Each week\, two people will have the opportunity to sign up for a 30-minute slot to use according to what is most helpful for their process. In most cases\, the writer will assign roles for their pages\, the pages will be read aloud\, and if desired\, the writer can ask for a round of feedback based upon their specific questions and needs. If you are not writing but would like to join for the reading portion of this gathering to participate or listen to the shared work\, you are more than welcome.

The key task in the book is the dreaded Morning Pages with a few artist dates alone in the week\, and occasional time for introspection. \nI’m starting a group\, with the solid goal of completing the 13 week cycle. Here’s how it will work: \n\n\nWe meet once a week on Zoom for 60-75 minutes.\nWe read the short chapter aloud until the ‘Tasks and Check In’ section\, followed by a brief discussion.\nWe also pair or throuple up. These smaller groups will encourage each other throughout the week\, however each decides best for that group.\nI could potentially record the discussion portion and make it accessible for anyone who can’t join that week\, with the set intention of showing up for each other and ourselves.\nThe day and time is negotiable. Weekend mornings seem optimal currently.\n\nIf you’re interested\, please kindly RSVP by Friday\, January 26th. ​Let’s leap so the net will appear – yet again. Hoping for a nice group.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text] \nAbout the Series\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Company CoLabs are a series at The Actors Center that offer a framework for collaborative explorations and community programming among company members.

Writing can often be isolating and working from home can be distracting. Our hope is to establish a designated space to work collectively each week\, making the writing process more communal\, offering accountability\, and creating an opportunity to hear work aloud. The first two hours of the meeting will be devoted to independent work. You are welcome to use that time however you’d like. There will be three prompts offered at the beginning of each session to inspire if needed. \nThe third hour will be devoted to sharing and reading. Each week\, two people will have the opportunity to sign up for a 30-minute slot to use according to what is most helpful for their process. In most cases\, the writer will assign roles for their pages\, the pages will be read aloud\, and if desired\, the writer can ask for a round of feedback based upon their specific questions and needs. If you are not writing but would like to join for the reading portion of this gathering to participate or listen to the shared work\, you are more than welcome.

Anyone ever started\, not completed\, and/or had the books gathering dust on your shelf\, in the closet\, or under a bed side-eying you? Well I have and I’d like to complete it this time. \nHere’s a chance for community support towards completion and inspiration. Let’s go diving for pearls. The key task in the book is the dreaded Morning Pages with a few artist dates alone in the week\, and occasional time for introspection. \nI’m starting a group\, with the solid goal of completing the 13 week cycle. Here’s how it will work: \n\n\nWe meet once a week on Zoom for 60-75 minutes.\nWe read the short chapter aloud until the ‘Tasks and Check In’ section\, followed by a brief discussion.\nWe also pair or throuple up. These smaller groups will encourage each other throughout the week\, however each decides best for that group.\nI could potentially record the discussion portion and make it accessible for anyone who can’t join that week\, with the set intention of showing up for each other and ourselves.\nThe day and time is negotiable. Weekend mornings seem optimal currently.\n\nIf you’re interested\, please kindly RSVP by Friday\, January 26th. ​Let’s leap so the net will appear – yet again.

Writing can often be isolating and working from home can be distracting. Our hope is to establish a designated space to work collectively each week\, making the writing process more communal\, offering accountability\, and creating an opportunity to hear work aloud. The first two hours of the meeting will be devoted to independent work. You are welcome to use that time however you’d like. There will be three prompts offered at the beginning of each session to inspire if needed. \nThe third hour will be devoted to sharing and reading. Each week\, two people will have the opportunity to sign up for a 30-minute slot to use according to what is most helpful for their process. In most cases\, the writer will assign roles for their pages\, the pages will be read aloud\, and if desired\, the writer can ask for a round of feedback based upon their specific questions and needs. If you are not writing but would like to join for the reading portion of this gathering to participate or listen to the shared work\, you are more than welcome.

Anyone ever started\, not completed\, and/or had the books gathering dust on your shelf\, in the closet\, or under a bed side-eying you? Well I have and I’d like to complete it this time. \nHere’s a chance for community support towards completion and inspiration. Let’s go diving for pearls. The key task in the book is the dreaded Morning Pages with a few artist dates alone in the week\, and occasional time for introspection. \nI’m starting a group\, with the solid goal of completing the 13 week cycle. Here’s how it will work: \n\n\nWe meet once a week on Zoom for 60-75 minutes.\nWe read the short chapter aloud until the ‘Tasks and Check In’ section\, followed by a brief discussion.\nWe also pair or throuple up. These smaller groups will encourage each other throughout the week\, however each decides best for that group.\nI could potentially record the discussion portion and make it accessible for anyone who can’t join that week\, with the set intention of showing up for each other and ourselves.\nThe day and time is negotiable. Weekend mornings seem optimal currently.\n\nIf you’re interested\, please kindly RSVP by Friday\, January 26th. ​Let’s leap so the net will appear – yet again.

Writing can often be isolating and working from home can be distracting. Our hope is to establish a designated space to work collectively each week\, making the writing process more communal\, offering accountability\, and creating an opportunity to hear work aloud. The first two hours of the meeting will be devoted to independent work. You are welcome to use that time however you’d like. There will be three prompts offered at the beginning of each session to inspire if needed. \nThe third hour will be devoted to sharing and reading. Each week\, two people will have the opportunity to sign up for a 30-minute slot to use according to what is most helpful for their process. In most cases\, the writer will assign roles for their pages\, the pages will be read aloud\, and if desired\, the writer can ask for a round of feedback based upon their specific questions and needs.

Here you will find a supportive\, safe virtual space where artists in our company bring their stories\, concerns\, questions\, recommendations\, and inspirations in a free-wheeling but facilitated discussion. With no set agenda\, we delve into whatever is of interest or concern in any given week. We explore what it means to be an actor and what place our art holds in the world.  People suggest balm for body and soul while walking hand-in-hand along the actor’s way.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text] \nAbout the Series\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Company CoLabs are a series at The Actors Center that offer a framework for collaborative explorations and community programming among company members.
