And welcome to the
Completely Ridiculous Spring Conservatory:
Six weeks of comprehensive actor training
with a particular focus on physical acting, ensemble and play.
Monday to Friday from 1-4.30pm EST, on Zoom
Starting Monday, April 5th.
This April, a diverse group of Completely Ridiculous students will have the opportunity to engage in high level & high quality conservatory training, all from the comfort of home. Our faculty members are working professionals holding advanced degrees and certificates from the most prestigious conservatories in the world, and currently teach at some of the most competitive actor training programs in the country. Unique to this program, each faculty member has both extensive training in their individual discipline of actor training, and also a strong foundation in the world of clown, games, play, and physical acting.
The spring program will be a little bit different than previous rounds. We are adding an Anti-Racist Theatre course; a Wellness Practice, with Annie Piper; Guest Speakers and Master Classes led by working actors in tv/film and theatre - all in addition to our continued focus on Scene Study, Movement, Play, and the work of BIMPOC playwrights. We have thoughtfully built the curriculum to support holistic and integrated learning. All the classes support and enrich one another, while finding common ground in the world of physicality and play.
At the end of the 6 weeks, Completely Ridiculous students will walk away with industry contacts, a more enthusiastic and curious body, a larger capacity to dream and dream big, and a greater comfort with spontaneity, freedom and play. Students will also gain a deeper understanding of who they are as unique, individual artists and what they bring to an ensemble, as well as a whole new set of skills to apply to their career and/or ongoing education.
