Move out of actor head. Into character body.

You've done your prep. You're in the room. Now you can begin.

So now, let's stop. And wait.

Character Body is an approach to acting that trains our sesitivity to the physical experience of being alive.

At its heart is the recognition that there is more to a character than we can consciously construct, and that our imaginations are far more fertile than we often give them credit for.

Character Body gives us a physical language for exploring everything that exists before and beyond words, building our confidence and trust in this animal knowledge.

We learn to notice rather than impose, to allow rather than force, and to discover the complex, contradictory life of a character from within.

We learn to blindfold the actor head so that we are driven by the Character Body and channel its desires and demands.
