Expressive Actor

Integrated Voice, Movement and Acting Training








If actor training is to meet the demands of a new century, a truly postmodern understanding of technique must emerge. Most importantly the actor's physical and psychological education must be synthesized into a single method of training. The next generation of actor trainers will develop a unified method of actor training that is too broad and comprehensive to be labeled as either physical or psychological, internal or external--the content of acting, voice and movement classes will mix, mingle and overlap and perhaps become indistinguishable. The actor will not study acting, voice and movement in pieces and parts, but the integrated act of expression itself. Someday in the not too distant future acting, voice and movement teachers will work as a team sharing a common vocabulary, a similar method of training and perhaps a single technique.
