Book NOW !

The ACTOR’s LAB is offered several times per year. It offers different themes. The theme of these months is: PRE-CHARACTER: a thrilling & empowering approach to acting.

The actor’s LAB: A mosaic  approach to explore acting.
The LAB is not prescriptive but descriptive and exploratory.

Working at the level of pre-character is thrilling and empowering! It is designed for performers but is open to any one curious about the craft and art of the actor.

The way it is designed necessitates at least 4 participants. Participants are willing to explore the unknown with curiosity, creativity and the seriousness of the Lecoq clown.

In the Pre-character LAB we explore, as the term indicates, ways to prepare ourselves, body and mind, before entertaining any idea of a character.

GET ready and LET IT happen to you!

I was professionally trained in France, Canada, NYC (Atlantic School, SITI, Juilliard)  have experience in acting, stage designing and directing, and I am a certified M. AmSAT in the Alexander Technique. My play “Fugato Labile for Camille Claudel” was produced in Bucharest and Brussels.

Find more about the teacher and what she has worked on; then join us.
