The first two weeks will delve into advanced tools for active listening and somatic sensitivity needed when approaching scenes involving close relationships. Over the subsequent three weeks\, a scene partner and scene will be chosen and explored using exercises to help build physical history\, affection\, and the bile that may occur as an aftermath. Whether you are new to Lucid Body or not\, this workshop will offer tools for embodying the conflicting layers present inside a character\, as well as between characters\, on a blood and bone level. \n[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_column_text css=””] \nAbout Fay Simpson\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””] \nFay Simpson is the Founder of the Lucid Body\, a psycho-physical process of introspection\, exertion\, and mental challenge that empowers actors and dancers to express human complexity and passion with safety and skill. She is Head of Movement at NYU’s Graduate Acting Program\, and has been the Artistic Director and co-founder of Impact Theatre since its creation in 1990 (D-Train\, Degas’ Little Dancer\, Marital Bliss of Francis and Maxine\, Kurt’s Wife: A Story of Lotte Lenya\, Grey Gone\, and most recently\, SCOTTY).

Each participant is asked to choose a role to prepare and also bring in a dream to explore. The process of using Dreamwork to create a role is a beautiful\, mysterious\, and profoundly inspiring methodology. By engaging with fresh material from the unconscious as delivered by a dream\, we find the fertile intersection between our own selves and the character. We then discover what is deeply personal about the script and how urgent it is for us to inhabit this story and character.

Discover what is within you that is longing to be revealed through the fiction of the character\, and unveil the connections to your personal truth that are held in the script. We will work with gesture in the body\, freedom in the voice\, and an expansive approach to engaging the imagination.

For we are getting nearer and nearer to the subconscious and the more subtle our work\, the better conditioned our physical instrument must be to express it. The work you are doing is difficult\, impossible\, essential.”\n— Konstantin Stanislavski\n\n\nActor\, teacher\, and company member\, Ken Barnett\, will return to The Actors Center for a 3-day workshop sharing the tools of Dreamwork\, while focusing on using unconscious material to develop a character. Each participant is asked to choose a role to prepare and also bring in a dream to explore. The process of using Dreamwork to create a role is a beautiful\, mysterious\, and profoundly inspiring methodology. By engaging with fresh material from the unconscious as delivered by a dream\, we find the fertile intersection between our own selves and the character. We then discover what is deeply personal about the script and how urgent it is for us to inhabit this story and character. As is true with each dream\, each role becomes a new opportunity to learn\, grow\, and move towards wholeness: a call from one’s destiny. \nKen has offered Dreamwork to the company before\, but this is the first time we will focus on character work. Working physically\, Ken will guide participants in asking the thinking mind to soften in order to invite the truth held in the body to express freely. Discover what is within you that is longing to be revealed through the fiction of the character\, and unveil the connections to your personal truth that are held in the script. We will work with gesture in the body\, freedom in the voice\, and an expansive approach to engaging the imagination. Prior experience with Dreamwork is welcomed but not required. \n\n[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_column_text css=””] \nAbout Ken Barnett\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””] \n\nKen is an actor\, director\, acting coach\, and teacher of Dreamwork for Artists.

The first two weeks will delve into advanced tools for active listening and somatic sensitivity needed when approaching scenes involving close relationships. Over the subsequent three weeks\, a scene partner and scene will be chosen and explored using exercises to help build physical history\, affection\, and the bile that may occur as an aftermath. Whether you are new to Lucid Body or not\, this workshop will offer tools for embodying the conflicting layers present inside a character\, as well as between characters\, on a blood and bone level. \n[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_column_text css=””] \nAbout Fay Simpson\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””] \nFay Simpson is the Founder of the Lucid Body\, a psycho-physical process of introspection\, exertion\, and mental challenge that empowers actors and dancers to express human complexity and passion with safety and skill. She is Head of Movement at NYU’s Graduate Acting Program\, and has been the Artistic Director and co-founder of Impact Theatre since its creation in 1990 (D-Train\, Degas’ Little Dancer\, Marital Bliss of Francis and Maxine\, Kurt’s Wife: A Story of Lotte Lenya\, Grey Gone\, and most recently\, SCOTTY). She is an IPA-certified Intimacy Coordinator and has been a physical acting director and somatic acting coach for more than twenty years. \nFay has also taught at The Yale School of Drama\, the New School’s Eugene Lang\, Michael Howard Studios\, The Studio/NY\, Marymount Manhattan College\, and The Actors Center. Fay was awarded a Fox Foundation Fellowship to intern with Mark Rylance at the Globe Theater in London in 2000. \nRe-balancing the nervous system and energetic body of each actor and between actors after every rehearsal is a priority and the reason she became an intimacy coordinator. She has choreographed intimacy for numerous plays\, ballets\, and screen projects\, with credits that include A Midsummer Night’s Dream with the Classical Theater of Harlem directed by Carl Cofield\, Dracula with Ballet Met in Columbus\, Ohio\, Marys Seacole directed by Machel Ross at the Shubert Theatre\, A Song of Songs at El Puente\, and the film Gage County\, NE\, directed by Cecilia Rubino. \nShe also co-founded a Theatre for Social Change summer program in Tanzania for Yale Drama students\, as well as the Veterans Project in New York.

A dialect is not a believable one\, unless it is fully embodied. This process depends on the individual actor’s access to their instrument. Beth will guide participants in exploring melody\, rhythm\, pace\, oral posture\, phonemic changes\, source and path of the resonance\, and focus of articulation. “This may sound technical\,” says Beth\, “but inevitably\, aspects surface as pathways for the actor to weave the accent into the matrix of transformation. The modality that the actor chooses in their approach can change as one moves from one accent to another\, but there are landmarks that can help the actor embody any accent.” We’ll start by working with multicultural Parisian accents\, branching outward across the globe exploring a French accent of your choice. \n[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_column_text css=””] \nAbout Beth McGuire\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””] \n\nBeth has worked as a vocal/dialect coach both on and off Broadway\, in regional theatre\, and in film and television for 40 years. She was a Professor in the Practice of Acting and served as the Director of Speech and Dialects at Yale School of Drama for 23 years. She is currently freelancing\, teaching and coaching film\, television and theatre\, and occasionally still gets on the boards. \nWith colleague Jane Guyer Fujita\, she teaches a series of teacher training workshops covering Phonology\, Text\, Dialects\, and production coaching. Her book\, African Accents: A Workbook for Actors (Routledge press\, November 2015)\, is the first practical comprehensive analysis of the genre. \nMost recent dialect coaching projects include Lady in the Lake with Natalie Portman\, Lupita N’yongo in The Wild Robot\, Ryan Coogler’s SINNERS with Michael B Jordan\, the Marvel action film\, Black Panther\, and Jordan Peel’s sociopolitical horror flick US.

The first two weeks will delve into advanced tools for active listening and somatic sensitivity needed when approaching scenes involving close relationships. Over the subsequent three weeks\, a scene partner and scene will be chosen and explored using exercises to help build physical history\, affection\, and the bile that may occur as an aftermath.
