STAGE WORKS "Magic with a Theatrical Twist (to enable the actor inside the magician)" ( 2.5 hours )

Many pros turn to acting coaches, directors, and choreographers to help make their act better. Now in a small, classroom setting you will experience basic theatre techniques and strategies that will enhance your performance as an entertainer. (designed for the stage magician but eye opening to the working close-up artist.)

TOPICS INCLUDE- breathing excercises/theatre "lingo" -projection/diction -movement/blocking -scripting -tech sheets -rehearsals -characterization -applause/applause segues -tables/props -cohesiveness/flow -original-material- chart -plot/on-stage-conflict.

WORKS IN PROGRESS Bring a rehearsed magic routine, 3-5 minutes long, to recieve feedback in a positive environment. Also bring notebook, pen, and questions relating to the "stage." Be sure to wear comfortable clothing for movement. If you are serious about working the pro-circuit or just want to learn from others in an at-ease atmosphere, join us! Matt McCoy will conduct the sessions, and will have professional magicians stopping in to share their thoughts on "magic with a theatrical twist."
