Summary

Sande Shurin's enlightened acting technique is a determined effort to steer away from intellectual, theory-based instruction to a more creative and viscerally human approach. It moves beyond teaching how to represent a character or various emotions toward living a role with in-the-moment identification and urgency. Asserts Rapp of Rent fame, "Since I started working with Sande, I think it's safe to say my work on character and my ability to transform into character have exploded and expanded beyond anything I previously would have imagined."
