Tailored for the immigrant community, this course melds the fundamentals of acting with public speaking techniques. Participants will work on voice and body language, empowering them to articulate themselves with confidence both on stage and in day-to-day interactions. At the end of the course, there will be a public showing where you can invite your friends and family to see your work!
This class was taught in English in January 2024.
Iveliz is a Chilean actor who recently graduated from the MFA in Acting program at the UW School of Drama.
