New York 2007
Well, the NYC workshops went really well. Saturday was a cold reading workshop. It was great to work with actors from beginners to the well-seasoned. People came, not only from New York, but from all over the U.S. including California, Texas, Georgia, Conneticut, Arizona and Florida. All were interested in learning the cold reading technique either for voice over work, community theater, or to further their acting careers. There were also people there that are going through life changes and are wanting to try their hand at acting. Sunday was a fun group from my yahoo fansite. They all wrote a play together online and reserved Sunday for a cold reading of it. I also taught them the relaxation and a sense memory exercise. I worked with a lovely character actor, Philomena, an aspiring actor, Heather, and a community theater actor, Cheryl on their monologues. Everyone did a great job with the cold readings, the play, and the monologues. It was a pleasure to meet and teach all of them.

Thank you for the pictures and comments-looks like everyone had a great time and a wonderful learning experience-Regi.
A little bird told me everyone had a fantastic time and new friendships were made. I knew who most of the gals in the photo were without ever meeting any of them. Next yer I want to go to and already putting money back for the trip. allison
What a great opportunity for those involved. Thank you for sharing. It sure makes me want to attend a workshop.

The workshops were remarkable, with the four hours flying by in no more than a few minutes. The content was what we came for, the synergy a bonus. Everyone was supportive and if anybody left without learning something, then they simply weren't paying attention.
Daunted by the seemingly impossible demands of this craft, I came away inspired by Elizabeth and energized to work even harder to find the art I know is inside me.
Thank you EDO for so generously sharing your time and knowledge.

Elizabeth, thank you so much for offering this workshop. I just reviewed my cold reading tape and am amazed at how successfully you combined critique, instruction and encouragement.
Meeting everyone in the group was a joy. I am looking forward to another workshop opportunity. I think I have been bitten by the acting bug. Yikes! KB
Hey
I found the workshop to be very inspiring and I'm sure everyone one of us in attendance brought something back with us, we have been kind of reading other books on method acting for months now, along with Elizabeths help. From the cold readings to the exercise relaxation. It was really good being in attendance at one of your workshops Elizabeth. I'm really happy that I made the trip. It was also nice meeting everyone. A big hi back to your family Ash.
Jaime
