MONOLOGUE MASTERCLASSES WITH TOP L.A. AGENT, MITCHELL GOSSETT OF CESD, A BICOASTAL AGENCY
Saturday, May 21
Work with L.A. based TALENT AGENT, Mr. Mitchell Gossett of CESD, one of the most
respected bi-coastal talent agents in the Industry, on
monologues, improvisation, physicality exercises + character development in this one-day workshop!
Mitchell directs the agency's L.A. + NYC Departments for Motion Pictures, Television, + Theatre. During his tenure at CESD, Mitchell built a renowned scouting operation for young talent + continues to discover the next generation of distinctive artists like Jennifer Lawrence, Kristen Bell, Demi Lovato, Selena Gomez and Darren Criss.
"The only thing you have that no other actor in the world has - is YOU." - Mitchell Gossett
Mitchell believes the most exciting way to
explore material is not through thoughts alone, but through "ACTIONS" - through what you are DOING with your body.
Bring ACTions into the work creates a stronger, more visceral connection to the material. But as importantly, it also provides a means of showing the
most unique feature any actor can present: THEMSELVES in the work.
In a fun, nurturing environment Mitchell will guide young actors through the physical activity that the instrument best shows who the individual actor is and what they uniquely bring to the role and material. Mitchell calls in our students for follow up meetings!
