Bucharest - Summer '08

To be honest, I learned things that I never knew existed. As an actress, I had been clinging to certain acting ideas of which I was certain – but now, because of this workshop, these ideas have taken a new direction. I am grateful for all I learned here and I thank you for that.

What a creative experience, I have come to life! I wanted it to last much longer. It made me want to play again, and I wanted to act this new way in front of an audience. The workshop completely changed my vision of how this art needs to be approached. It made me believe again, in others and in myself. It changed me as a person, and I am not kidding at all….

Extremely practical and useful, - for all actors in general and for me, personally, as an actress and a teacher.

Cristina Buburuz
Actress and Acting Teacher

There are many reasons why this was a great workshop, but it was the atmosphere that made me feel extraordinary and then everything was possible. I received and adopted acting principles with extraordinary ease, organically, as I learned things that I only imagined possible. The small things have now become much bigger.

I’d like to say this was the first time I was NOT afraid to make mistakes, the first time I didn’t feel inferior to my colleagues or my teacher, and the first time that I was able to create “quietly”. And it was so surprising that there was no competitive tension, but cooperation. It isn’t enough to say the workshop was useful, the simple truth is that my eyes have opened; I’ve had a revelation and I feel I cannot continue the way I’ve been acting. Eugene gave me a foundation; I now need to build upon it.

This workshop was a barometer for what I’ve been taught in the past and for what we think we know about the theater.

I felt free, as if surrounded by old friends, even though I hardly knew anyone - but more importantly, I was not afraid to make mistakes. I wanted it to go longer…
