The Lee Strasberg Theatre & Film Institute is the only school in the world that offers training of Lee Strasberg’s Method acting in its pure form.

For over 40 years, the Institute has built its outstanding reputation on the

proven value of Lee Strasberg’s teachings, the astonishing achievements of

our students, and an unwavering commitment to excellence.

We challenge our students to be bold in their choices, original in their

ideas, and passionate in their pursuit of creative individuality.

Our highest goal is to ensure that each student masters Lee Strasberg’s

technique and its disciplines, as well as encouraging every student to

become a successful artist within his or her chosen field.

OurLegacy

The birth of the Institute was a natural evolution which began in

1931 with the formation of the Group Theatre. Co-founded by Lee

Strasberg, Harold Clurman and Cheryl Crawford, the Group was

created as a progressive theatre company devoted to producing

socially-conscious plays, as well as formulating a cohesive system of

training for the actor. With its pioneering Broadway productions,

many of which were directed by Strasberg, the Group quickly

distinguished itself as one of the most revolutionary theatre

companies in history.

After the Group disbanded in 1939, Strasberg began teaching private

classes at both Carnegie Hall and The New School for Social Research.

In 1951, he became the Artistic Director of the Actors Studio, a position

he would hold for over 30 years. The legion of legendary actors,

directors, and playwrights trained by him at the Studio skyrocketed the

New York-based workshop to international prominence.

In 1969, the emergence of a new generation of teachers trained by

Strasberg enabled him to establish The Lee Strasberg Theatre &

Film Institute. Later that same year, Anna Strasberg became the

Artistic Director of The Lee Strasberg Creative Center, a non-profit

organization that offers scholarships to promising artists from the

inner city. The Institute immediately gained national recognition and

distinguished itself as a major force in professional dramatic training.

The success of Strasberg’s teaching, coupled with the overwhelming

demand to study his technique, required that the Institute operate

in both Los Angeles and New York City. The roster of successful

actors trained at the Institute continued to flourish, making the

name Lee Strasberg synonymous with superb acting.

Lee Strasberg, along with his wife Anna, established The Lee Strasberg Theatre & Film Institute to offer the very special and individual nature of his work to a wider public. Since its inception, the Institute has remained a world-class leader in performing arts training.

Page 5: Strasberg Brochure

Strasberg lectured at Harvard, Yale, UCLA, and

Brown University, where a theatre has been

dedicated in his name. He also became the recipient

of an Honorary Doctor of Fine Arts degree from the

University of Florida. Abroad, Strasberg represented

the American theatre at the Stanislavski Centennial

in Moscow, lectured on Stanislavski in Paris,

and held seminars in Argentina. His seminar in

Bochum, Germany remains one of the most sought-

after references on acting in that country.

Lee Strasberg’s Method is well-known throughout the

world, and its influence endures. At any given time,

students from more than 39 countries arrive at the

Institute with a desire to learn Strasberg’s Method.

For over three decades, The Lee Strasberg Theatre

& Film Institute enjoyed an association with

New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts,

developing some of the most accomplished artists

working in the entertainment industry today.

In 1974, Strasberg made a triumphant return to

acting in Francis Ford Coppola’s masterpiece,

The Godfather Part II; his performance earned him

an Academy Award® nomination as Best Supporting

Actor. He continued to star in such films as

The Cassandra Crossing, Boardwalk, Going in Style,

and ...And Justice for All. On television, he starred in

Macbeth, Emmy® Award-winning The Last Tenant,

and the critically-acclaimed Skokie.

As a respected authority on acting, Lee Strasberg

was a frequent contributor to numerous publications

and became the only teacher invited to write the

definition of acting for the Encyclopedia Britannica.

His top-selling book, A Dream of Passion, is

considered required reading for all students of the

performing arts. The Lee Strasberg Notes, based

on the tapes from his Institute classes, is regarded

as one of the most illuminating books on acting

ever published.

Since Lee Strasberg’s passing in 1982, the

Institute has continued to thrive under the

artistic leadership of Anna Strasberg, who has

passionately upheld his uncompromising standards.

In 1999, Lee’s son, David Lee Strasberg, joined the

Institute as Creative Director.

For over four decades, actors, directors, and writers

from around the globe continue to acknowledge

The Lee Strasberg Theatre & Film Institute as the

place to discover, define, and explore their own

unique talents.

Page 9: Strasberg Brochure

Lee Strasberg clearly understood the needs of actors and designed

a series of sensory exercises to train them to respond truthfully

– expressing what they feel but cannot articulate – and to live

through the imaginary circumstances described by the playwright.

These exercises develop the actors’ craft and provide them with a

clear, logical process for working. This Method is brilliant in its

specifics and is essentially an art form - the study of life, human

behavior, and the world we inhabit.

Lee Strasberg’s Method, as taught at the Institutes bearing his

name, is more necessary than ever in this multimedia world. It is

thorough, organized and prepares actors to handle the demands

of any role, empowering them to create compelling, nuanced, and

fully-realized performances.

This class serves as the foundation for all of our classes – from

Movement for the Actor, Dance, and Singing to Script Analysis

and Technique for Film & Television – and it allows our actors

to integrate and refine all aspects of their craft, creating a

finely-tuned instrument.

At the Institute, our teachers have been selected for their skills and

expertise and are among the most accomplished artists in their

professions today.

New York City Classes

Acting for Film & Television introduces actors to the challenges of performing in front of a camera. Confidence and skill are gained through scene study, script analysis, rehearsals, and set etiquette. Techniques learned in our acting classes allow students to be free and imaginative on-camera.

100 Eyes: The Art of Acting in a Feature Film examines the special collaboration between actor and filmmaker through a series of screenings and lectures. The class addresses the technical demands of delivering a truthful performance under the pressure and rigor of film production.

Audition Technique teaches our students how to find representation, impress casting directors, and become professional working actors. Students learn how to define an image that works, market themselves effectively, and launch a practical strategy for success. Agents, managers, photographers, and casting directors participate in select classes.

Character Work allows the actor to model animal behavior (animal exercise), real people (life study), paintings, and photographs to illuminate character traits beyond the playwright’s words. Classwork involves exploring a character’s perspective through a highly advanced approach.

Dance gives students the opportunity to find expression through bodies in motion. Electives vary each session; our range of classes include:

Ballet demonstrates the fundamentals of the steps, technique, and musicality of the form. Emphasis is placed on repetition and discipline, while utilizing every aspect of the actor’s mental and physical capabilities.

Basic Dance I is designed for students with no prior experience. Actors engage in the joy of dancing through a series of simple exercises that teach body awareness, coordination, and style.

Basic Dance II offers a grounding in dance through a series of advanced techniques. Experience in ballet and jazz terms is required.

Jazz I is structured with a ballet, modern, and Afro-Caribbean warm-up, progressing to an across-the-floor choreography, and concluding with routines that imbue technique with emotion.

Jazz II demonstrates how to further engage audiences by infusing emotion and physical expression into advanced choreographed routines. A working knowledge of ballet, modern dance, and jazz is required.

Stretch and Turn shows students how this technique aids in unlocking and strengthening the body, as well as promoting greater flexibility and control.

Tap is offered for students with no prior experience. All the essential single, double, triple, and quadruple tap sounds are taught through energetic exercises and routines.

Dialects introduces students to distinct American and international accents, the International Phonetic Alphabet, and the formation of sounds. This highly technical process provides the actor with the skill to fulfill the demands of a character’s specific voice.

Page 11: Strasberg Brochure

Movement for the Actor focuses on each student’s individual physical potential. Actors learn how to recognize and release habitual patterns and to understand the role breathing plays in all physical expression.

Musical Theatre integrates three disciplines - acting, singing, and dancing - into one comprehensive class. Students work as an ensemble and experience how storytelling comes alive through the power of music. This class culminates in a public performance. (Audition required.)

Physical Characterization introduces an external approach to truthfully portraying a character vastly different from the actor. This outside in method helps students learn how to transform themselves and connect to their character’s physical life as required by the material.

Physical Technique emphasizes strength/release warm-ups, based on the influences of Moshé Feldenkrais and Joseph Pilates, and movement improvisations that sharpen the student’s focus on being centered, relaxed, and open.

Script Analysis provides the invaluable skills to discover the subtext and logic within a play. Students carefully study text in order to bring the playwright’s vision to life, as well as articulate their understanding of the story through clear, playable actions.

Singing develops the skills necessary for the actor to achieve effective vocal control and placement. Using standards from the American Musical Theatre repertoire, students are taught to select, prepare, and perform music appropriate to their individual vocal ability, quality, and personality.

Speech I is designed for students with no prior vocal training or those for whom English is a second language. The International Phonetic Alphabet is applied to achieve Standard American Speech, while also eliminating foreign or regional sounds.

Speech II is offered for native speakers of English or those with previous training. The class integrates voice, speech, and various dialects. Each student presents a weekly monologue, which is coached and critiqued to help guide vocal development.

Stage Combat demonstrates the safe use of the body to execute strikes, falls, slaps, punches, and kicks. Students are eligible to participate in fight tests adjudicated by outside judges from the Society of American Fight Directors.

Tai Chi is an ancient form of Chinese meditation based on the Taoist principles of balance and harmony. Students enhance their concentration, will, and awareness through the practice of controlled breath, posture, and movement. Emphasis is placed on how to be present and responsive to stimuli.

Technique for Film & Television is specifically designed to gain a working knowledge of the fundamentals of a production. Students are exposed to camera operation, continuity, blocking, lighting, and sound to gain a deeper understanding of set operation.

Vocal Production teaches a vocal technique that is open, flexible, and endowed with a vast and colorful range. Based on the work of Stanislavski, voice production is a powerful technique offered to complement the work of the Method actor.

Working with the Director examines the collaboration between director and actor during rehearsal. This is experienced through specific scene work, as the actor learns how to use his or her creative process cooperatively to fulfill the director’s vision.

Page 12: Strasberg Brochure

Acting for Film & Television is conducted on our James Dean Soundstage, utilizing high-definition digital equipment to capture students as they gain invaluable experience performing on- camera. This class prepares actors for the challenges of working on a professional set.

Accent Reduction is designed for those who speak English as a second language and natives with a prominent regional accent. Students are instructed on how to be understood in Standard American English by solving speech problems and readjusting vocal habits through practical vocal exercises.

Audition Technique teaches our students how to find representation, impress casting directors, and become professional working actors. Students learn how to define an image that works, market them-selves effectively, and launch a practical strategy for success. Agents, managers, photographers, and cast-ing directors participate in select classes.

Dance I is designed for those with no prior experience. Students engage in the joy of dancing while learning a series of simple exercises aimed to teach body awareness, coordination, and style. Dance II is available for advanced students with prior experience. Actors are taught original choreography and selections from Broadway and movie musicals. Knowledge of ballet and jazz is required.

Los Angeles Classes

Film Fighting I demonstrates various styles of martial arts and how to maintain safety in the midst of full-contact action. By examining their work on camera, students discover how to transcend fight choreography in order to convey a story physically and express them-selves through movement.

Film Fighting II challenges the actor to grow mentally, physically, and spiritually through intensive training in self-defense and advanced fighting techniques. Jumping, acrobatic movements, and weapons are incorporated into the stunt choreography. This class emphasizes fundamental combat skills, while preparing actors for filming a complete fight sequence.

Improvisation provides students with a powerful act-ing tool that helps explore material on a spontaneous and collaborative level. Students delve into a diverse range of unscripted scenes aimed to stimulate the imagination and engage the impulses of discovery.

Lee Strasberg Legacy examines the legendary teacher through exclusive audiotapes, archival footage, and video recordings. Students participate in interactive discussions and physical demonstrations to expand their understanding of how Method acting is relevant to our times and their work.

Movement for the Actor focuses on each student’s individual physical potential. Actors learn how to recognize and release habitual patterns and to under-stand the role breathing plays in all physical expression.

Performance Workshop is structured to teach actors how to apply sensory exercises to the roles they portray. Students learn how to articulate the subtext in a scene, make meaningful choices, and use physical behavior to enhance their sense of storytelling.

Rehearsal Procedures explores this important process that is critical to the success of a film or play. Unlike traditional classes where the director conducts the rehearsals, students take the lead. Actors utilize their unique insights and learn to develop an efficient approach to scene preparation. (Advanced students.)

Sensory Intensive focuses on the student’s physical and mental awareness and addresses individual acting problems. Sense memory exercises strengthen the actor’s ability to respond to stimuli, follow impulses, and trust his or her intuition. (Advanced students.)

Tai Chi is an ancient form of Chinese meditation based on the Taoist principles of balance and harmony. Students enhance their concentration, will, and awareness through the practice of controlled breath, posture, and movement. Emphasis is placed on how to be present and responsive to stimuli.

Voice addresses breath control, projection, articulation, and controlled movements that help foster a more versatile and distinctive vocal quality. Students develop the unique attributes of their voice while actively expanding their own range.

Scene Study offers students the opportunity to move beyond classwork and act in fully-rehearsed scenes on an actual stage. This class guides students as they gain a deeper grasp of the complexities of a scene by examining the dramatic elements of the material.
