| Description | The proliferation of poor acting training in high school theatre programs results in the unfortunate reality that most college and university programs must spend a large part of their time and resources having to undo the bad habits that have been ingrained in young actors by well-intentioned, but under-qualified, high school drama teachers. The rigorous audition process students go through for getting into LaGuardia Arts (the school that the TV show and movie Fame were based on) ensures that students come in with a strong level of potential as actors. Teaching students how to craft activities and preparations is not for teachers who are faint of heart, and does require both a background in the Meisner Approach taught by a master teacher and a strong knowledge of the types of students they are working with. Book Name: Michael Chekhov and Sanford Meisner |
