Acting 101: 4Ps of Acting

Whether you're stepping onto the stage for the first time or looking to refresh and refine your craft, this dynamic workshop offers something for everyone. Led by actor and teacher Anton Korenev, the session introduces his signature 4Ps training approach—Perception, Preparation, Practice, and Patience—to help you build a strong foundation in acting or reconnect with it from a deeper place.

Tentative Evening Schedule:

• Hour 1: What is acting? We'll explore its definition and dive into the 4Ps method.
• Hour 2: Table reads and scene work—what they are, why they matter, and how to practice both effectively.
• Hour 3 (optional/advanced): An exploration of technique and additional scene work for those seeking deeper engagement.
  

Preparation: Participants are encouraged to read Neil Simon’s The Odd Couple (either the original or the female version). If you'd like to work on a specific scene during the workshop, please contact Anton Korenev in advance at anton.korenev@beacting.com.

About the teacher:

Anton Korenev was introduced to acting in 2001 in New York City, and has been around theater since. The transformative moment happened when he attended a workshop given by John Strasberg in 2015, and that lead to more more than 10 years of study in acting, theater, and directing with the master teacher. With time, Anton Korenev has started directing and producing and now, with John Strasberg's encouragement, teaching. He is also a member of an IATSE Local. His current goal is to direct and produce performances that touch and affect audiences. Information about some of his recent projects is available at antonkoreneventertainment.com.
