The Summer Conservatory at LLS is designed for you, the actor, to experience physical release, personal insight, expanded emotional range, increased self-expression, and advancement in acting technique. The month-long program will create a significant change in you, moving you forward in your understanding of acting and your ability to accomplish your vision. We will emphasize development of the physical instrument, communication, character development, risk and courage, text interpretation and the ability to include more of yourself in your overall work. 


2011 Summer Conservatory:

Monday, July 11- Friday, August 5

This full-time, 4-week program will take actors into a new level in several areas of rehearsal process and performance.  Students will work daily on acting technique, scene study, movement, voice, Shakespeare, and the business of acting.  In addition, actors will work at writing material for and about themselves and learn techniques to develop that material into artistically satisfying performance. Classes are taught by top professionals in each area.  

During the month, actors will see a dramatic change in themselves and their craft--engaging in exercises and activities aimed at developing a truthful, dynamic and practical process around which a professional acting career can be built. 

Students will also be encouraged to learn about and join the New York acting community by attending information sessions with Industry professionals, networking events and professional theatrical performances.
