    <title>Improv Class: Creating Meaningful Moments on Stage</title>
    <description>&lt;h3&gt;Creating Meaningful Moments on Stage&lt;/h3&gt;             &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;             Instructors: Kareem Badr, Kaci Beeler, Roy Janik&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;             Tuesdays 7-9pm, July 8th-29th. $100             &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Great theatre is made up of great moments. We don&amp;#39;t have the luxury of re-writes and planning in improv, but that doesn&amp;#39;t mean we can&amp;#39;t treat each moment on stage with importance and weight. In this 4 week class, you will learn to:&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;slow down and read your scene partners&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;be comfortable with being silent on stage&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;recognize the power of seeing characters change on stage&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;fulfill the promises your scene choices make to the audience&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;better commit to, and &amp;quot;stick&amp;quot;, your choices on stage&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;  &lt;p&gt;This class is intended for actors and improvisers who have a basic understanding of improv, but want to add depth to their scenework, or just want to be more comfortable doing scenes. Each week, you will learn new techniques for making your scene choices stronger, and put the techniques to use in a series of directed, and un-directed, scenes. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Register online:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;at &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.austinimprovclasses.com&quot;&gt;http://www.austinimprovclasses.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Or register via phone/e-mail (payment due at first class):&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt; email: &lt;a href=&quot;mailto:classes@pgraph.com&quot;&gt;classes@pgraph.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt; phone: 512-638-7265&lt;br /&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;  &lt;strong&gt;About the instructors:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Kareem Badr, Kaci Beeler, and Roy Janik are members of the award-winning troupe &lt;a href=&quot;http://pgraph.com/&quot;&gt;Parallelogramophonograph&lt;/a&gt;. They perform, teach, and coach at various theaters around town and have an endless devotion to improvisational theatre. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;strong&gt;What students have said:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &amp;quot;Roy and Kareem make the classroom setting so enjoyable that you almost don&amp;#39;t realize you&amp;#39;re learning, and suddenly after 2 hours you are a better improvisor.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &amp;quot;Everyone really enjoyed the sessions we had, we felt supported, encouraged and challenged all at the same time.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &amp;quot;Working with Roy and Kaci is a love fest. I have never had so much fun improvising in my life and may never have as much fun again.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div id=&quot;footer&quot;&gt; for more information about the instructors and their improv style, visit &lt;a href=&quot;http://pgraph.com/&quot;&gt;www.pgraph.com&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/div&gt;</description>

    <title>City Theatre Acting Series: The Art of Auditioning </title>
    <description>&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;Discussion of different auditioning techniques, including methods of preparation, monologue selection and performance, the mechanics of presentation of provided sides, and how to project your desired personal image. Activities: In addition to lectures outlining procedures and techniques for auditioning, students will present auditions at various times to the instructor individually and to the class as a whole. A variety of audition situations will be simulated realistically, including cold readings and prepared readings. Auditions will be critiqued and by the end of the class students will have a great deal more practical audition experience, and a set of criteria to assist the student in future auditions.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
