Point of View: The Way Your Character Sees the World
Every character has a point of view. They have opinions, beliefs, biases, hopes, fears, and a unique way of making sense of what's happening around them. In this workshop, Karla Dingle helps actors and improvisers move beyond playing situations and start playing perspective.
​
Through exercises and scene work, you'll explore how your character's experiences, relationships, and emotional life shape their choices. Whether you're working from a script or creating a scene in the moment, a strong point of view leads to more specific choices, stronger connections, and performances that feel honest, grounded, and alive.

Intersection: Acting Meets Improv — Discovering the Why
Get ready to stretch your improv through the tools of acting. We spend a lot of time learning the who, what, and where of a scene, but the real magic happens when we discover the why.
In this workshop, Karla Dingle combines acting and improv techniques to help performers create richer characters, stronger relationships, and more meaningful moments on stage. Through work on point of view, subtext, backstory, emotional truth, and active listening, you'll learn to get out of your head and trust what you're thinking, feeling, and experiencing in the moment.
​
The result? More authentic reactions, deeper connections, and scenes that feel honest, specific, and alive.

Monologues: Trusting Your Voice
​
Standing alone on stage or in front of a camera can feel intimidating. It's just you, the audience, and the words. In this workshop, Karla Dingle helps performers build the confidence to trust themselves and stay connected in the moment.
​
Through a combination of scripted and unscripted work, you'll explore emotional honesty, active listening, presence, and what it means to truly communicate rather than perform. The goal isn't to be perfect—it's to be real. When you stop worrying about getting it right and start trusting what you're thinking, feeling, and experiencing, your work becomes more engaging and more human.
Whether you're preparing for an audition, a performance, or an on-camera role, you'll leave with tools to feel more confident, connected, and alive both on stage and on screen.
Scene Study

Scene Study: Living in the Moment
The best scenes happen when you stop focusing on what you're going to say next and start paying attention to the person in front of you. In this workshop, Karla Dingle helps performers strengthen their ability to listen, connect, and respond truthfully in the moment.
Together we'll explore what happens when you trust your thoughts, feelings, and instincts instead of planning ahead. Through scene work and coaching, you'll practice staying present, allowing yourself to be affected, and building genuine relationships with your scene partner.
​
Whether you're working on stage or on camera, you'll leave with tools to create more honest, connected, and compelling performances that feel alive from moment to moment.

Character Development
Nov 12, 19 & Dec 3, 10, 4-6pm EST
ONLINE
Character Development: Building People, Not Characters
The most interesting characters don't start with a funny voice, a costume piece, or a list of traits. They start with something human. In this workshop, Karla Dingle helps performers move beyond stereotypes and surface choices to create people who feel real, specific, and alive.
​
Through a combination of exercises, exploration, and scene work, you'll discover how thoughts, feelings, relationships, experiences, and behavior shape who someone is. We'll focus on curiosity rather than invention, allowing characters to emerge naturally instead of forcing them into a predetermined idea.
​
Whether you're working from a script or creating a role through improvisation, you'll leave with tools to build richer people, make more grounded choices, and create performances that audiences recognize as truth.
