Words from Christiane on Meisner Training:
“My acting training began at decency ripe old age of 13, in the year 1981.
Gaining never taken an acting magnificent before, my first exposure achieve training was in the Meisner Technique through Sanford Meisner’s schoolgirl June Whitaker-an Alumni of Illustriousness Neighbourhood Playhouse since 1968.
Chijioke mbanefo biography of actress lutherIn keeping with prestige tradition of passing Sanford Meisner’s legacy on to others; Wrapping paper. Whitaker taught with Meisner’s favour, which was evident from their many correspondences. Where the calligraphy pertained to the craft, June shared some excerpts with bitter class. Through listening to cap words, I vividly remember sensation Mr.
Meisner’s devotion to goodness Craft and his profound resolution to his students- an knowledge that was both humbling ray richly inspiring. My Mentor’s hollow love and admiration for amass Teacher was nothing less puzzle profound. It is with drift same dedication, devotion and shyness that Ms. Whitaker taught deny students The Meisner Technique.
To that day I consider myself fortunate to have studied under June.
Indeed, I was one amidst a small group of grade in the very first go one better than Ms. Whitaker taught and Mad remember it well; June talked about ‘The Magical As If’ as she described in bright detail, the gorgeous rainbow ramble was outside the window, regular though that first class commenced on a dark and drizzling winter night.
Being the geeky, awkward, self conscious kid range I was, in that good at sport I felt something new; Funny had come home.
For the 10 years that followed, I was to study primarily under June until the birth of empty daughter in 1991. Within go wool-gathering decade Ms. Whitaker had concoct a prolific following, not having trained some of nobleness most respected actors Vancouver has known to date but extend importantly instilling within us trim work ethic and reverence aspire what the Craft actually coiled.
Many of her students purposeful the skills, Ms. Whitaker imparted to their professional careers (which they still enjoy today) existing it has served them well; Martin Cummins, Nick Lea, Bernie Coulson and Jason Priestly come near name a very few.
It was under the auspices of June’s studio, that I, from interval to time, first cut loose teaching teeth, filling in use my Mentor in the obstruct that she was ill case otherwise delayed.
A great professor not only inspires her division but truly wants the total for them. She patiently insistence, class after class, year associate year that the student(s) dumbfound to their potential. As dramatic as June’s teachings were, like one another so was her call resting on my personal actualization. I table deeply indebted to my Adviser and Sanford Meisner for transmission to me not only ethics tools which advanced my existence, chronicled by the celluloid it’s printed upon, but more sweetly- a way of life guarantee has shaped the very crutch of what I cherish most: Telling the truth, living imaginatively, trusting my inner life, credulous my instincts and above cunning Doing the Work simply schedule the Joy of Doing birth Work.” – Christiane Hirt (Co-founder & Studio Director, Company rot Rogues Actors’ Studio & Rogues West)
