Preparation

As a participant, it is necessary to read the first 12 chapters of Ivana Chubbuck’s book The Power of the Actor and familiarize yourself with the 12 tools. You can buy it on Amazon (BE, NL, DE, FR, CO.UK) or Bol.com. Two to three weeks before the workshop, you will receive a scene and script. You must read the script and analyze and prepare the scene using the 12 tools of the Chubbuck Technique. Additionally, you will meet with your scene partner 2 to 4 times and rehearse for 6 to 8 hours.

 

During the Workshop 

The first workshop day starts with a brief introduction to the Chubbuck Technique. Besides working on the scenes, there will be interactive exercises to help you connect with your emotional core. You will also learn how to create chemistry through the Chemistry exercise. On the first day, you will perform your scene as you have prepared it. Then, Romy will work with you and help you personalize your character. You will take notes for your scene as well as from the scenes you observe.

Based on your notes, you will adjust your acting choices and rehearse on Saturday evening. You need to keep the evening free for rehearsals and have no other plans.

On Sunday, the focus will be on performance and different versions of the scenes. There is also time for questions and answers.


Information for Active Auditors (30 Spots)


This interactive workshop will clarify how to use the 12-step Chubbuck Technique. By watching, listening, and participating you will gain practical tools to apply it effectively in your work as an actor, director, or screenwriter.

It includes several transformative and interactive exercises in which everyone (participants and auditors) will actively participate. For example, the audience will engage in exercises designed to help actors tap into their emotional resources, enabling them to access true emotions in a simple, and effective way. You'll also learn to create chemistry through the Chemistry Exercise.

Each scene in the workshop has been carefully selected to confront actors with key aspects needed to deliver great performances. The observers will face the same challenges, pondering questions like “What would I use?” and “What choice would I make here?”.
