We have 2 shows in the episode with 3 experienced and creative actors.
Up first, we have Playhouse West Teacher, Wolf Bodison. When analyzing a script, actors must become top notch detectives to uncover the clues in the text; deciphering dialogue, identifying sections, fleshing out their character’s history, discovering story arc, all of which are hidden in plain sight, right there on the page. With over twenty years of experience as an actor, director and acting teacher, Wolfgang will provide a detailed approach to breaking down a script that will help an actor develop a role that is dynamic, truthful and authentic.
