Basic Acting, Fourth Period, Tuesday
Daisy's classroom was set up with several couches arranged in a semi-circle facing a podium and a cleared area for staging any scenes. A comfortable looking leather chair was placed to one side of the cleared area -- this was Daisy's director's chair. Those folding things were for weenies. She sat here as the students entered, sipping a glass of carrot juice.
When everyone had gathered, she got started. "Hi. I'm Daisy Adair and this is Basic Acting. If you're in the wrong room, out with it now, or just decide to be an actor, already. First thing's first, role call. Please state your full name, including any middle name or nickname, then tell us your favorite actor or actress, and why you chose this class."
She went on to pass out the syllabus. "As you can see, we'll have a full period's worth of activity every week, so please try to be on time. If you can't make it to class, it's up to you to contact me or another student and find out what you missed. If you miss more than one class, you'd better have a really good reason. For the monologue and scene requirements, I'll be bringing texts in to each class and have them available in my office, which will be open on Tuesday and Thursday mornings. You're welcome to look around on your own for material, as well, as long as you let me know where you're getting it. Hell, even write it yourself. Again, just let me know."
"We'll start off easy for our first class. What is acting? Why do we act? Is it just on stage, or do we do it elsewhere? And I don't mean just movies. Thoughts? Questions? Concerns?"
[ooc: the links provided in Daisy's first office hours will be posted in her profile at my first opportunity. They're weblinks of monologues and scenes, but like Daisy said, feel free to write or find your own, or handwave it if you need to. I'd love to see what you can find, though.]
