“Great constructive feedback and encouragement and support! Doug McDade emphasizes the most important instruction he was giving by having us write it down, word for word. Great sense of humor. He really enjoyed what he was doing.”
What is the Actor’s Artistry?
One of my favorite sports casters is Chris Berman on ESPN." When covering a break-away touchdown from a football game, he often says, “He. Could. Go. All. The. Way!” And he’s about as fired up as you can imagine. One doesn’t necessarily have to be a sports fan to appreciate these quotes. For me, they come to mind when I think about a new student considering the craft of acting.
The Actor’s Artistry will help you determine what you’re feeling, when it comes to approaching the world of acting. We offer you all of the acting basics to exercise the art in your heArt, and get you started on this fabulous journey. You’ll learn how to be in the moment, do what you must and respond truthfully. There are so many methods of acting out there but there’s only one TRUTH. YOUR TRUTH. We are committed to help you find it. Because, It might be. It could be. It IS something you can do. You. Could. Go. All. The. Way!
In fact you should go all the way! Of course you will hear naysayers tell you all kinds of reasons why you shouldn’t pursue your dreams. What is your heArt saying to you? That’s the voice you need to listen to. Here at the Doug McDade Studio of the Performing HeArts you’ll hear that word “HeArt” a lot. You’ll also notice that it’s spelled oddly. The reason being is the nudge you’re getting from deep inside you is coming from the art in you heart. You see, even the slightest hint that you want to explore acting comes from a deep place within you. It’s a voice that fears being denied. We don’t deny that voice. We encourage you to hear it out. The Doug McDade Studio of the Performing HeArts knows about your heart’s desire. You may have heard the familiar phrase for “wanna be” actors: “If there’s anything else in this world you can do, do that. DON’T go into acting!” While there may some truth to that, I’d respond with, “Why do you feel you can act?” Because if you’re feeling it, I would submit that’s the art in your heArt desiring to express the voices inside you.
