The Actors SceneShop^TM is an intermediate to advanced level course in scene study and analysis.

Most of the acting work American actors do starts with a written script. It therefore follows that actors must be able to read, interpret, and make acting choices that will serve the script with which they are working. That, after all, is the purpose of acting. Yet, many American actors never learn how to do these basic and essential things.

The first question that an actor must learn to ask is that same one the author asked as he was writing. And that question is, "what is going on here?" In other words, what is the action of the play or film…the scene…the beat…the moment?

Actors must learn to find the story in the script and then find ways to communicate that story to the audience. This is basic to any good acting…and that is what this course is all about.
