What is a technique class? What is meant by technique? Well, on one level it is how to get things done--but it is really much more than that. It should contain at least four elements:

• understanding how you work
• understanding what creative tools are available for the actor
• understanding what is necessary to maintain creative ideas
• understanding how to organize your work

Stanley Harrison has been teaching acting technique class at 13th Street Rep since 1990. Class uses the great creative ideas of the Russian teachers including Michael Chekhov.

Terms: Class is $30 per class (which is a $10 reduction for members of the rep.). You must commit to one term, which is 3 months. Class meets once a week for 2 hours.

If you are interested in taking class, please call Stanley ASAP. He will collect the schedules of those who are interested and arrange a time for the class to meet.

Stanley has recently directed "The Cat and the Moon" by Tom O'Neill and "Jack Kerouac, Last Call" also by Tom O'Neill. He has been training and teaching actors for over forty years. He is a graduate of the Yale School of Drama, where he studied with late Professor Constance Welch, one of the finest teachers in the American Theatre. In addition, he studied and worked with the Directors of the National Theatres of Denmark and Holland. As an actor he has appeared in over three hundred roles. His directing and teaching experiences are equally numerous. His teaching technique is centered around basics, such as: How to reach new creative levels and how to maintain them ? how to organize the tools available to reach your goals. What makes stanley's technique singularly different is that its purpose is to move you "out" of the class and on to the stage.
