The first of a series about training actors to do stage combat. The first questions we need to address: SHOULD all actors train to perform violence? The answer is not as cut-and-dried as you might think, especially coming from a violence designer.
In the episode, I discuss reasons FOR and AGAINST actors training in stage combat. Knowing these arguments will help you better understand your potential students, what they need, and who to target for your classes.
