THE IMAGINATION COURSE

"If one is intrigued by, finds joy in, and is dedicated to the concept of transformation, how does one actually go about realizing this transformation?  The ability to transform is not something one can take for granted.  One must hone the creative imagination and seek to find pathways into the physical/soul configuration necessary to enable it to respond to any and all suggestions which may present themselves.  Thus it is necessary for the actor/artist to seek with undying determination the ability to develop the fullness within of what the human being is capable of experiencing." Fern Sloan

“We ourselves have the ability to grow, develop, unlock our talent, if we open the doors to our imagination. We can change ourselves and be inspired by our own creation." (Joanna Merlin) 


“If I look at somebody, it must be full of things which are behind my gaze…” (Michael Chekhov).
