A Saturday morning workshop with Laurie Portocarrero

Laurie Portocarrero WORKSHOP • The Art of Acting — Tools for Life
for students, parents and interested people!

The Art of Acting — Tools for Life!

This workshop is an open, relatable opportunity to gather and explore the remarkable tools provided by the dramatic arts. Whether for help in auditions or work interviews, parenting, teaching, or theater experience, we will utilize speech and movement exercises and games and play to melt barriers, lower stress, integrate and relate and connect in new ways that involve more of our whole being—and have FUN doing it! No experience required, only a desire and willingness to play and to explore.

The long-time actor, storyteller, and drama teacher, Laurie Portacarrero brings the wisdom of great artists and thinkers such as Shakespeare, Michael Chekhov, and Rudolf Steiner.Join us for an exploration of our complex relationship with the awesome power of the spoken word. We will investigate together our complicated relationship to the spoken word and its use through movement and speaking, in game and drama exercise, and poetry. We will see if we can’t begin to take steps toward awakening to our high destiny as human beings: co-creating through our word our selves, our relationships, and our world.

Hartsbrook students are free; other school's students, $12, with a parent $25 for the pair; adults alone $20.
