Just imagine the benefits of becoming a good actor. Never again will someone call you a liar (because you will never be caught lying; you’ll be that good). Never again will you be stuck daydreaming about being someone else (method acting means you stay in character; you will be someone else — and you won’t be called bipolar or schizophrenic!). How liberating would it be to channel a wide range of emotions on a whim? To be comfortable getting up and performing in front of others? To release stress by playing a kick-ass banshee?! During free actor’s workshops at Studio D114 (250 Belvedere Road, Royal Palm Beach), you can learn these skills and more. The workshop is from 7 to 9 p.m. Call 561-795-6339.
Tuesdays, 7 p.m. Starts: Oct. 13. Continues through Jan. 26, 2009
