JEANNE HARTMAN, Hollywood acting coach to professional actors for over 20 years and author of The Right Questions for Actors, returns to Hong Kong in December to bring her expertise in her intensive, all-day acting workshops.
Ms. Hartman teaches the craft of acting using The Group Theater Stanislavski philosophy. This group became the “Legends in American Theater” including Stella Adler, Lee Strasberg, Elia Kazan, Barbara Loden, Clifford Odets, Sanford Meisner and Robert Lewis, which led to the Actors Studio where famous actors from Marlon Brando to Robert De Niro studied. Ms. Hartman teaches preparation for film and television acting learned from her work with Mark Travis and Lawrence Parke. Her performance studies at Juilliard and theater training with Herbert Bergdorf add to Ms. Hartman’s ability to discover which technique is best for each student.
