Just because we cant be in a classroom together, doesn't mean we cant create together! After two successful classes (Art of the Personal Monologue and Scene Study) Golden Globe and Emmy Award-winning actor Jeffrey Tambor (The Larry Sanders Show, Arrested Development, Transparent) returns to the Playhouse with a new Writing and Performance workshop. Each student will write a piece, either a scene or monologue, which will then be acted out by other students. This is a great chance to work on your writing and/or seeing your own work be performed. The instant feedback of the instructor and the audience of the students will not only help improve your writing skills but will also help actors as well. Whether you are a playwright, poet, short story writer, screenwriter, or actor- this workshop will give you an opportunity to develop your work. Students discover their strengths and weaknesses with the help of a trained actor/directors eye. Over the past four decades, Tambor has been an inspiration both on and off screen, bringing many iconic characters to life while cultivating a uniquely personal approach to his craft. He has taught acting classes on the West Coast and workshops at SXSW for many years.

ABOUT JEFFREY TAMBOR:Jeffrey Tambor has created some of the most iconic characters in television history from The Larry Sanders Shows Hank Kingsley to Arrested Developments George and Oscar Bluth to Transparents Maura Pfefferman. Throughout his career, Tambor has developed a unique teaching style based on his own artistic philosophy.

He created and hosts the podcast Acting Schmacting.Scholarships available through the generosity of the Beth and Bruce Becker Scholarship Fund.
