The Meisner work that our class has been doing has been such a fulfilling experience for all of us because not only have we all improved individually, but we have been able to witness each other grow and have these brilliant breakthrough moments that I have especially enjoyed watching my fellow peers experience! I think the most important thing I have learned from this Meisner work is that the possibilities are absolutely ENDLESS! However in order to be open to all of these opportunities/possibilites you have to focus 100% on your partner and be completely free and open. Once you let go of all you inhibitions your viewpoint changes and you can see all the creative possibilites and act on them impulsively. These magical moments that have happened in class have been so natural and organic and I find them to be so amazing because they could never happen, unless the actor was completely open and willing to take the risk and trust their impulses.
The things we have learned from Meisner are crucial for our upcoming scenes because we have to trust our partner and work off of them, and once we feel comfortable with our lines, scene objectives, etc...the impulses will then come naturally. I'm very excited for this next step, it will be so liberating!
