The Georgia Academy of
Dance is offering an acting program for students who are
looking toward a
professional career in
performance, whether on stage, screen or television.
Taking into account
each student’s age and experience, the class provides
students with the tools to perform in various genres.
Students engage in monologue work and scene study as
well as improvisation as a rehearsal and performance
tool. A segment on auditioning covers both prepared
monologues and cold readings, and an introduction to the
business side of an acting career helps students prepare
for their future careers. Students will be encouraged
to find acting opportunities outside of class, such as
at local community theatres, schools and churches.
The instructor is Susan
M. Steadman, Ph.D., a theatre practitioner for more than
three decades. She has directed plays for professional,
alternative, university and community theatre, has
published widely on theatrical issues, and is a produced
playwright. Her teaching career includes colleges and
universities, private schools, recreation departments
and theatre conferences. She is currently artistic
director of Offshoot Productions, a nonprofit,
professional theatre company based in Fayette County.
