Scene Study - Intermediate/Advanced (Ongoing) with Amanda Melby # An actor is always working on her craft. When you’re not working, you should be in class. Scene Study is for working actors and for those that have the desire and work ethic to be a working actor. Verve’s Scene Study class is a safe, vigorous, nurturing environment for you to build and practice your technique. Only through long-term training will you achieve your goals, stretch your previously held limitations, and learn to be flexible and adaptable while remaining true to the character and the script. Through partnered scene work, monologues, and solo Uta Hagen exercises, you will learn to create truthful, organic moment-to-moment life on stage on a weekly basis. The combination of expert coaching and self-critique will allow you to identify and articulate what is working and what isn’t, and most importantly, why. Scene Study is month-to-month, and ongoing. Entrance into the class is through audition or completion of THE CORE. Frequently Asked Questions .
