Meisner Acting Technique Presentation & Scenes with Kelley Hinman

Who is Sanford Meisner?

Sanford Meisner, one of the founding members of the legendary Group Theatre, developed and refined what is now known as the Meisner Technique during his tenure (1935-1990) at the Neighborhood Playhouse School of the Theatre in NYC.

 

His step-by-step procedure of self-investigation for the actor is now globally recognized and among the foremost of modern acting techniques. Playhouse graduates include Joanne Woodward, Robert Duvall, Steve McQueen, Eli Wallach, Gregory Peck, James Caan, Jeff Goldblum, Allison Janney, Connie Britton, Jennifer Grey, Griffin Dunne, Chris Noth, and many other well-known actors.
