Acting in Accent: American Southern

with Theresa McElwee

$270

Many of the greatest works in the theater and film take place in the American South, from the Carolinas to Georgia to Louisiana. While each area has a distinct culture and dialect, it is an important skill for most actors to be able to confidently inhabit at least one particular accent, and be able to modify from there according to the needs of the story being told. This workshop will approach accents of the American South by focusing in detail on one specific accent, and then exploring varieties found in the neighboring regions.
