Leap in with this one day workshop, designed specifically for high school and college age students! In this 3 hour youth workshop, students will write an original monologue that incorporates specific, universal themes, but comes from their own individual perspective and experience. Once written, students will apply Uta Hagen-based character work, and then perform their monologues for their course mates. This course is aimed at encouraging those taking it to reflect on their own experiences, to write with intention and specificity, and to share that experience in a way that allows the listeners to relate and create specific images in their own minds. Take the leap--sign up today. 

Levels: This course is designed for students in high school and college , who are are at the beginner or intermediate level.

About James Leo Ryan...

James is also a proud member of the National Alliance of Acting Teachers, and has been a Teaching Artist all over the U.S., including University of Northern Colorado, Hofstra University, Arizona State University, Pomona College, Broadway Artists Intensive, Camp Broadway, The Colony Theatre, and the Joffrey Ballet School.

Jame's Teaching Philosophy...

As a teacher, I strive to create a safe, supportive learning environment that also challenges students and pushes them to be their best selves artistically, academically, and, quite simply, as human beings. My desire is to inspire students to bravely explore, discover, and grow. I fully support both students and like-minded leaders to be inclusive, innovative, generous, conscientious, and compassionate. When focused, intentional writing comes together with focused, intentional performance, the result is honest, engaging, and magical. I'd love for those taking this workshop to walk away feeling that magic.
