Green Shirt Studio To Bring Meisner to Chicago 9/24-25

By:

Green Shirt Studio will present Meisner with a Master. Dare to get to the truth this September when Green Shirt Studio takes Meisner to a whole new level with Larry Silverberg in one intense weekend workshop:

Meisner with a Master

Chicago theater is visceral; it's raw and at its heart driven by the search for truth in the present moment. Larry Silverberg, one of the world's foremost authorities on the Sanford Meisner approach to acting, can teach you how to become a Chicago actor's actor.

When: Saturday September 24 & September 25 10am to 5pm $295/person

Where: Stage 773 1225 W Belmont Ave Chicago, IL

What: Nationally known Master teacher and author of "The Sanford Meisner Approach", Larry Silverberg will be conducting a two-day acting intensive in Chicago, September 24 -25, 2011 at Stage 773, 1225 W. Belmont. For the first time Chicago welcomes a weekend workshop - all Meisner, all day- for all levels of performing artists. Appropriate for actors at any level of acting experience (no prior Meisner training is required), participants will relish the challenge and support that this veteran actor, director and teacher so naturally creates in his classes. So, whether an experienced actor or simply curious, you'll won't be the same after a weekend of living truthfully under imaginary circumstances.

"[Real actors] dare to live vibrantly in the present and to state in a clear way, and in front of hundreds of witnesses, 'this is what I know to be true; this is my point of view and I will risk my life for it ." Larry Silverberg

Larry Silverberg is one of the world's foremost authorities on the Sanford Meisner technique of acting. Larry is a graduate of The Neighborhood Playhouse School of Theatre where he studied with legendary acting teacher, Sanford Meisner. You can learn more about Larry on his website at trueactinginstitute.com

Green Shirt Studio teaches Meisner year-round in Chicago. Andrew Gallant and Sommer Austin are certified instructors of the Sanford Meisner Approach to Acting as trained by master teacher Larry Silverberg. They are smart, funny, passionate and just a little bit punk. Their belief is that your acting should be as real as the shirt on your back.
