Finally after nearly a 4 month hiatus I went back to my acting class, Art of Acting 3, and it was pretty much as good fun as the ones in the past. Our new tutor, Ian McAleese seems like a decent enough chap (although my fellow acting bud, Scott, told me he lacked decent body hygiene!) and will lead us through the next 8 weeks. The first class tonight was a good little intro and breaker in, with some usual warm up exercises, which are always fun, it was good to return to walking round the room really fast and changing direction (believe its more fun than it sounds).

Tonight we also did some improvisation which was a good laugh, as we got into pairs and did some scenarios which Ian gave us to work on, mine involved me and Alan (from my acting 1 and 2) pretending to be a couple, and I was pissed from a party and came home late and had to pretend not to be very drunk, which I admit I didn't do too well, but it was a great laugh still. Other improvs that were fun included two new girls in our class one of whom was terrified to do a parachute jump and the other convincing her to do it. Scott also did a very good patronizing manager of a singer who wanted to do different songs for her act.

So hopefully Acting 3 will turn out to be just as good fun as the previous ones, another bonus is the class is smaller than the previous ones as only 12 of us showed up, so it relieves the pressure a bit when it comes to performance. Ian also seems to be quite a level headed tutor, we heard he doesn't mince words of hold back on critique, but so far he seems fine, perhaps his true colours might come out but so far, he seems pretty good as a tutor. Anyway it was a good first night, cue part 2.
