Voice and Speech

This course will provide the actor with practical
voice and speech tools at the end of his/her
training in preparation for transition to a
professional career. This course seeks to empower
the actor to develop his/her own approach,
regimen, and process for application of voice and
speech work to character development and acting in
general-including how to warm up the vocal
instrument properly based on each particular
actor's needs. The focus will include each actor
preparing and leading the class in their own voice
warm up, as well as using these skills and
applying them successfully to monologues and/or
scenes to integrate the voice, body, emotion and
thought in performance and fine tune pieces for
the actor's audition repertoire.
