Dialect Workshop for Actors

A good dialect can make or break a performance. Learning a believable dialect can be daunting. Knowing what to listen for, how to break it down, and how to practice, and then turning your work into something that will convince an audience is not easy to do—at least without a little guidance.

The goal of this workshop is to teach you as an actor how to make a dialect really work. When a dialect is accurate and specific it can unlock impulses and illuminate qualities in your character which might not have been evident to you when you were just guessing at what this person sounded like. Confidence with dialects is a secret weapon for an actor.
