TEACHER AS STUDENT

When I began my studies at The Neighborhood Playhouse School of Theater, as a student of Sanford Meisner, my goal was to build a solid foundation for a career in Arts and Entertainment. Perhaps you might benefit from the pages of my journal, from when I was learning a craft, for the very first time. The quote that follows represents where we began and where we ended, in our studies with Mr. Meisner: "Acting is doing truthfully under imaginary circumstances." - Sanford Meisner
