ONE-OFF FREE CLASS - Meisner technique / Gonsalves Method
<posting with Guy's approval> I'm accredited to teach & direct the Gonsalves Method already, but I'm currently working on an formal adult teaching qualification. I need to record a one hour class of me teaching (at least 2-3 students), to submit for assessment. I'll need students to have their webcam on, but the recording will only go to the assessor and won't be published online. - If it's students who haven't done any Meisner technique, I'll teach that. - If It's students who have, I'll teach the new method that developed from it, the Gonsalves Method. Gonsalves Method | Hold any audience in the palm of your hand I'll figure out times once I've got a few people but looking to do this ASAP to keep things moving with the course. Let me know who would be interested in a free one-off acting class by posting below, and then I'll propose some dates/times.

when is the next one?
Actors Wisdom for Wednesdays!
Real acting isn’t about pretending — it’s about revealing. If we don’t bring our own emotions, memories, fears or truths into the role, the performance becomes empty technique instead of something the audience can actually feel.

@Guy Allon I'd go further. Meisner denies the concept of playing a character at all. You are always yourself, just living under the given circumstances. Character is what the audience project onto you.

I'd disagree with your premise of bringing 'own memories' - they are a number of drawbacks and issues with that way of working. Instead, we can work with fantasies based on your real life, but not real. For example, rather than remembering a real life bereavement every night you do a show (which doesn't sound healthy does it?), you pick a real life alive healthy loved you, and create a fantasy of their death instead.
