IMPROVISATION/COLD READING
(10-12 years old)
How can you consistently deliver work that will keep you working? By making strong choices, personalizing them, and staying "in the moment." Whether acting material is scripted or improvised, spontaneity is essential. Through scripted material, combined with exercises and games, we will work on text analysis, character and action, addressing the common mistakes and habits actors make that can inhibit their most honest, interesting and memorable performances from reaching the audience.

A Remembrance
It is with great sadness and love that we share the news of the passing of Hallie's father, producer-writer George Eckstein.
He was an exemplary human being, well-loved and respected by all who knew him. He was a great guy, a wonderful father and a loving, devoted husband. He will be missed terribly.
His reputation as a producer of class and integrity is undisputed. His many achievements and contributions to his profession are too numerous to mention. Aside from his own credits, during a career which spanned fifty years, he guided and nurtured some of the most influential artists in film and television.
"George hired me to direct his ABC Movie of the Week, 'Duel,' and my career was never the same," Steven Spielberg said in a statement. "I owe so much to him for having the courage to hire a kid to do a man's job. George had passion for telling highly original stories and was a wonderful mentor to me and so many others. I will miss his quiet dignity."
He leaves behind his loving wife Selette Cole Eckstein; daughters Nora Eckstein Sekowski, Hallie Todd, and Jennifer Eckstein; sons-in-law Marek Sekowski and Glenn Withrow; and two granddaughters, Ivy Withrow and Clara Sekowski.

The Hallie Todd Studios workshops scheduled for Spokane the week of September 21st have been rescheduled to accommodate the family's needs during this difficult time. The Spokane workshops will now take place October 19th to October 22nd, 2009. For more information, or to register, visit Hallie Todd Studios: Spokane.
