What is the Meisner Technique?

Acting is living truthfully under imaginary circumstances

- Sanford Meisner

Truthful, Natural Performances: Teaches actors to be fully present and authentic, creating believable, emotionally grounded performances - especially powerful for film and TV.

Emotional Preparation Without Emotional Recall: Teaches actors to enter scenes emotionally alive using imaginary circumstances, avoiding the need for personal trauma or emotional recall.

Be Free in Your Work: Live moment-to-moment in the scene without needing to pretend or show emotions that aren't really there.
