Being alone under the spotlight can be intimidating. But it can also be a wonderful opportunity to uncover the secrets of our character, to show who we truly are when no one is watching. Don’t just stand there nervously waiting to be “saved” by others. It can be a gift of trust from your fellow actors, giving you space. It can be a moment of honesty and intimacy between you and the audience. So why are we afraid? In this workshop, we will take our time and our stage. We will share ourselves through monologues. We will build the reality of the scene, as an invitation for others to join us. We will set traps for them, so they will want to jump in. And we will bravely look the audience in the eyes. And then we’ll discover that on stage, we are never truly alone.
