Denver Center Theatre Academy hosts The Lucid Body: An Actor’s Workshop Feb 20 9am-5pm and Feb 21 12-4pm Newman Center for Theatre Education, 1101 13th St, Denver
Join Yale School of Drama’s Fay Simpson for The Lucid Body, an intensive weekend workshop for serious actors. Combining a deep and rigorous yoga based warm-up with vocal release, students will discover areas of resistance and learn how to manipulate their physical energy to increase their acting range. This class will unlock the emotional and physical possibilities of the body by drawing awareness to and then breaking the habits that bind the posture in a fixed stance. Improvisation will be utilized to create scenes for these new characters.
Workshop Cost: $225
Phone: 303-446-4892

Parental guidance suggested
January 8 through January 31, 2010
What can a dog offer its owner? Laughter, enjoyment and good company. But what if this little creature becomes a barrier between you and your wife, then what?
Greg and Kate have moved to Manhattan after twenty-two years of child-raising in the suburbs. Greg’s career as a financial trader is winding down, while Kate’s career, as a public-school English teacher, is beginning to offer her more opportunities. Greg brings home a dog he found in the park—or that has found him—bearing only the name “Sylvia” on her name tag. A street-smart mixture of Lab and Poodle, Sylvia becomes a major bone of contention between husband and wife. She offers Greg an escape from the frustrations of his job and the unknowns of middle age. To Kate, Sylvia becomes a rival for affection. And Sylvia thinks Kate just doesn’t understand the relationship between man and dog. The marriage is put in serious jeopardy until, after a series of hilarious and touching complications, Greg and Kate learn to compromise, and Sylvia becomes a valued part of their lives.
