Berkeley Rep School of Theatre
Introduction to Directing
Directing is the act of making the invisible visible. It’s a dynamic dance between words and action, creativity and craft, and between actor, director, and audience. This hands-on class is focused on manifesting your vision and building your director’s tool-box. Analyze text, create theatrical space, and explore the rehearsal process. Practical experiments and scene work will culminate in a showcase for invited guests. Dive in, stimulate your creativity, and hone your craft. May be repeated.
