These classes also may be arranged for private groups or organizations upon request.

ACTING FOR SINGER-SONGWRITERS

Using your own material, you will learn and practice acting methods I have specifically designed for performing songwriters, to help you flesh out your characters and tell their stories from the inside, whether your songs are fictional or autobiographical. No prior acting training or experience is required.

ACTING FOR MUSIC DUOS

Using your own material, you will learn and practice partnered scene study methods I have specifically designed for performing music duos, as a vehicle for enriching your duo’s creative expression and making your collaboration more fulfilling and dynamic. No prior acting training or experience is required.

ACTING WITH COVER SONGS

Using cover material of your choosing, you will learn and practice acting methods I have specifically designed for this class, as you explore and develop the characters and stories that made you want to perform these songs in the first place. No prior acting training or experience is required.

POLISHING YOUR ACT: A LIVE PERFORMANCE MASTER CLASS

Several acts will be chosen in class to perform a song and receive supportive, individualized on-the-spot coaching. Bring instruments and a song, or come to observe how a small but meaningful adjustment can make a world of difference in your relationship to a song and to an audience. All experience levels are welcome.

I have been developing and presenting dynamic, fun, enlightening, and interactive offerings for many years.

I present these performing arts-related programs for conferences, festivals, schools, organizations, camps, and private groups around the country.

My curricula can be customized according to experience levels and event specifications.

Please contact me to discuss presentation options and fees.
