CFAA ACTORS WORKSHOP

at the Art Institute of Sacramento

THIS WEEK!
Featuring Jason Bortz,
" You and/or Your Character"​

What is the common thread throughout your performances? WHY is there a common thread throughout your performances? If every character is different and unique, what must you do to take a backseat as you bring them to life? What gets in the way? Though the characters differ, is there a technique by which to discover them again and again?
Join Jason Bortz for an evening of exploration of character work at the CFAA/Art Institute of Sacramento. Bring a monologue.

A different acting instructor, coach or technique is featured at the CFAA each month. Improve your acting and diversify your training here.
