Join us for this acting workshop in Stockholm where we will work with the world known Meisner technique!
Explore the first two steps of the technique, "repetition game" and "activities and doors", and build an honest and filter-free relationship with your partner on stage. Train your "acting-muscles" (focus, listening, instinct, connnection, imagination) and become truthful and present on stage, making the scene come alive for real.
Work in a small group where safety and liberation brings the best out of you. Allow yourself to let go and take new steps ahead in a supportive group with an experienced teacher.
The workshop will be in both Swedish and English. If you are fluent in Swedish, you may work in Swedish. If not, you may work in English.
Your guide for the weekend is Swedish actor and acting coach Michael Hamory who has been teaching since 2010. He teaches the Meisner technique since 2017 and has been giving many courses and workshops in Stockholm, but has also taught the technique in Budapest and Tokyo.
Here are some words from previous participants:
"There's not enough words to describe the Meisner workshop this past weekend. Oh what a process it began in so many levels! Thank you for your honest and very on-point feedback! Your delivery is direct, yet gracious and thoughtful. You're a brilliant and experienced instructor and you have a very individual approach. You really see the person behind the facade and you want to help your students of all levels to achieve their personal best. I hope this Meisner workshop was the first of many future Meisner workshops with you."
"Throughout the workshop, Michael empazised the importance of autencity and connection in acting. One of the things I appreciated most about Michael's teaching style was his ability to create a safe and supportive environment where we felt comfortable exploring our emotions and vulnerabilities."
"I took meisner classes with Michael, it's a journey of self-exploration of emotional demand. Michael helps you in the seek of the art and what you need to get there in a humble, straightforward way. So you know what will be expected of you."
"I recently took part in the Meisner workshop run by Michael Hamory and have nothing but praise to heap upon the host as well as upon the other participants. The fact is Michael initiated an environment of trust which came to full bloom as the weekend extended. From the get go he infused in us a sense of belonging as well as inspiring a greater sense of daring. Recognising that we were all individuals he kept a keen eye on proceedings and was able to pinpoint in each of us the work that needed doing, and by work I mean the risks we needed to take to fully express ourselves during the tasks. But perhaps for me, and I dare say for the rest of my fellow participants, it was the feedback which proved most noteworthy. It was at once frank and honest but delivered in such a manner as to not upset a delicate soul such as myselfđ. This balance of activity, feedback, and all round positive interaction led to a very successful two days and I can say without hesitation that I will be signing up for any future workshops led by the host Michael Hamory."
