1 event,In-Person Workshop BETHANY CAPUTO: Michael Chekhov Technique Three Monday Afternoons Dates & Times Monday, April 14, 2025 – 11:00am-3:00pm Monday, April 21, 2025 – 11:00am-3:00pm Monday, April 28, 2025 – 11:00am-3:00pm Anthroposophy NYC, 138 West 15th Street Unfortunately we can not accommodate observers at this workshop. About the Workshop Acting teacher, coach, and Artistic Director of Chekhov Studio NYC, Bethany Caputo, returns to The Actors Center for a workshop focusing on Michael Chekhov’s psychophysical approach to acting. We will work with image, tempo, form, and movement. The technique teaches us to rely on our physicality and our image life to give us insight into our characters, such as physicalizing our objectives so that they don't remain an intellectual exercise, but instead are an embodied experience. Chekhov believed 'inherent in every actor is the desire for transformation,' and he set out a method that is playful, imaginative, safe, healthy, creative, and accessible to anyone truly looking to experience themselves differently. Sessions run over three Monday mornings, 11:00am-3:00pm. About Bethany Caputo Bethany Caputo studied at the Moscow Art Theatre in 1997 where she was introduced to the Chekhov Technique. She now teaches the work for the Michael Chekhov Association (MICHA), the Michael Chekhov School of Acting, Terry Knickerbocker Studios, The New York Drama Center, The New School, and a Chekhov Workshop in the grad program at Tisch SOA. Bethany has taught internationally at the University of the Arts in Zurich, Shanghai Theatre Academy in China, Victoria College of the Arts in Australia, and the National Institute of Dramatic Art (NIDA) in Sydney. Bethany was an actor in the Master Classes DVD series produced by MICHA and funded by the National Endowment for the Arts. Bethany is now the Artistic Director of Chekhov Studio NYC. Register Now Participants Enrollment is limited to 16 actors. Limited conflicts can be accommodated. Comments/Queries |

1 event,In-Person Workshop SITA MANI: Meeting & Transforming The Acting Instrument Three Weekday Afternoons Dates & Times Wednesday, May 14, 2025 – 1:30pm-4:30pm Thursday, May 15, 2025 – 1:30pm-4:30pm Friday, May 16, 2025 – 1:30pm-4:30pm Houghton Hall, 22 East 30th Street, Jefferson Studio, 2nd Floor Unfortunately we can not accommodate observers at this workshop. About the Workshop Movement and Feldenkrais teacher and Head of Movement at Columbia University, Sita Mani, returns to The Actors Center for three weekdays devoted to the body. As actors, the instrument we use is complex. It is regulated by our nervous system, which regulates itself continually in response to shifts in our internal and external environment. Due to how this system functions, oftentimes techniques we previously used effectively to prepare for work, one day no longer work for us, or techniques that seem to be effective for others just never seem to work for us. Based in Feldenkrais principles and practices, this workshop aims to teach us how to most effectively listen to our bodies—using principles that the nervous system understands—in order to bring our human instrument back to its neutral state organically and effectively, and then guide it to readiness and enlivenment for the creative act. Sessions run Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, 1:30pm-4:30pm. About Sita Mani Sita Mani is Head of Movement for the Graduate Acting Program at Columbia University and a founding faculty member of The Studio New York. She has also taught at The New School, Sarah Lawrence College, Mark Morris Dance School, Feldenkrais Institute, HB Studio, Scott Freeman Studio, and The Drama School Mumbai, as well as privately. Her training includes Alvin Ailey American Dance Center, The School Of Western Dance and Classical Ballet, Michael Howard Studio and The Feldenkrais Institute. She is a scholarship recipient and graduate of The Actors Center Teacher Development Program and The Hagen Teacher Training Lab. Certifications include Guild Certified Feldenkrais Practitioner, Licensed Massage Therapist, Shiatsu and Reiki Practitioner. Movement work includes Dance, Contact Improvisation, Tae Kwon Do, Aerial Arts, Yoga, Alexander Technique and Lucid Body. Register Now Participants Enrollment is limited to 14 actors. Limited conflicts can be accommodated. Comments/Queries |
