Class Description

Description

This English as a Second Language (ESL) Beginning 2 class, builds on the skills learned in ESL Beginning 1, and practice integrating the American dialect into their acting work. 

The class focuses on scene work and monologues. We will go over the rehearsal process, and on how to prepare a scene for class; we will also work on monologues in an audition setting. For all material worked on, we will consider how best to incorporate an American dialect without losing the spontaneity and immediacy we look to engage when we’re onstage. 

Each student will meet with privately with the instructor for an assessment of which sounds can be adjusted to make the American dialect clearer;  use the phonetic alphabet to help “translate” those sounds, and will continue to use the phonetic sentence from the ESL Beginner 1 course packet as a touchstone for the American dialect.

Prerequisites: ESL Beginners Acting Class I.
