Are you a creative type who enjoys sculpting (or who thinks you might?!)

Masks are all about CHARACTER; they can be used to create, exaggerate, or even hide a character. In our upcoming production of The Caucasian Chalk Circle, all of the actors will be using original "half-masks" to help define their characters.

SO, we're going to be setting up a Maskmaking Workshop, starting in mid-January, where together we will sculpt, cast, and paint more than twenty masks! Working from basic designs, the features of each character will be built with clay over existing plaster life-casts, covered with papier maché, painted, and readied for actors to wear.

Prepare yourself for a fun (and often-messy) whirlwind of fabrication as we help to create all the inhabitants for the onstage world of this play.

NEYT offers a scene study class with Jim Maxwell. “We won’t concern ourselves with performance; instead, we’ll use the scenes as opportunities to explore how the actor can actively engage with the material. Some acting experience will be assumed, but we will take the actors just as they are and in each class take the scene at whatever stage of its development. We learn by observing and addressing the challenges the scene presents for the actor. We’ll ask questions about the assumptions and choices the actor has made, whether those turn out to be useful or not useful in creating a life in the scene. The class will be about practice not perfection.”

To determine if we can host this class, please enroll by February 4th if interested. Email us if you need more time to decide.
