Location and times to be announced!
American Addict: A Devised Piece is a performance work in progress that will address the current CRISIS OF DRUG AND ALCOHOL ADDICTION IN OUR COMMUNITY AND OUR NATION AS A WHOLE. By interviewing addicts in recovery, their friends and family, healthcare workers and professionals, and by studying the disease of addiction in depth, we are developing a script with the primary purpose of removing the social stigma and guilt and shame that keeps so many addicts from finding recovery. ?
Visionbox Studio Theatre is a 501(c)3 non-profit Professional Actors' training studio in Denver. We pride ourselves on a passion for process and an appreciation for text-based training.
Visionbox Studio Theatre training is centered around the Actor's Five Questions, first introduced by Earle Gister, Head of Acting at Yale School of Drama for nearly two decades from 1980-1999. This is a text based technique grounded in the exploration of complex theatre literature including, but not limited to, Chekhov, Ibsen, Strindberg, Classical and Contemporary American playwrights such as Tennessee Williams, Arthur Miller, Clifford Odets, Lillian Hellman, David Mamet, Sam Shepard, Horton Foote, and John Guare, and finally Shakespeare. All students at Visionbox are taught by Master Teachers and learn from the same material, regardless of enrollment in the Apprentice Program or the Adult classes.
Visionbox is the ONLY acting studio in Denver to combine students of all ages, levels, and backgrounds in the same classes of rigorous, text based training.
