Betty Buckley to Teach Workshop in New York City in May

Following her critically-acclaimed Drama Desk nominated performance in Horton Foote's "The Old Friends" with the Signature Theatre Company and again with the prestigious Alley Theater in Houston, legendary Broadway star and 2012 Theater Hall of Fame inductee Betty Buckley returns to New York in May to offer her Song Interpretation & Monologue Master Class at T. Schreiber Studio, one of the foremost professional theatre studios in New York City. Established in 1969, T. Schreiber has been a home and training ground for many artists who have gone on to successful careers in theatre, film, and television. The Tony Award winner will assist aspiring artists, educators and experienced performers in the craft of singing, acting and storytelling.

Ms. Buckley shares her expertise and guides her students through a methodology that facilitates audience connection through songs and monologues. Her emotional connection to songs and audiences is renowned, and that very connection is at the heart of what Ms. Buckley imparts to her students.

A teacher for 40 years, Ms. Buckley's workshop is a must for people who want to perfect their ability to effectively communicate in their performance, their work and their relationships. The class also welcomes observers who participate in all aspects of the class except the individual coaching by Ms. Buckley.

Buckley is especially proud of her high school students, all of whom, through the work they have done in her past workshops, have been admitted to the universities & performing arts conservatories of their choice. "It gives me such joy to assist the growth of my younger students and to facilitate the dreams of my mature students to step into their true potential. It is my privilege to pass along the tools given to me by my great teachers," Buckley said.

An accompanist will be provided for singers. For further details and to apply to the workshop, prospective participants should contact T. Schreiber Studio at 212.741.0209 or email info@tschreiber.org For more information, you may also go to www.tschreiber.org or www.bettybuckley.com.
