Principles: Atmospheres.

Michael Chekhov acting course – tutor Max Hafler Nov 21 -Dec 12. 4 sessions once per week Noon – 1.30. GMT. What is atmosphere? How can we generate it and how can working online create it? Chekhov said the “atmosphere was the oxygen of performance” . Can we transform the zoom space through our imagination and energy into a new emotional space, or are we confined to creating pieces which are like a confessional skype call? In a Seasonal twist we shall be looking at pieces of Dickens’ “Christmas Carol.” email chekhovtpi@gmail.com
