We’d love to introduce you to one of our incredible TBG teaching artists, Brian Rojas! Read our interview with him below…
—
What do you enjoy most about teaching?
BR: [I love] creating an environment for a class to be silly, vulnerable, playful, and supportive with each other. Also, how much I learn from my students.
What is a TBG tool you love to use in your own acting journey?
BR: I enjoy playing with the real-life model. I love the simplicity of just doing what the character is doing but as myself. I usually find nuances to bring into my playing to help suspend disbelief and stimulate free association.
What is a project that you’ve been a part of that you are proud of?
BR: I feel grateful for all the storytelling experiences I’ve had. However, as we near summer, I can’t help but remember last year’s Edinburgh Fringe Festival. Sharing Scott Organ’s 17 Minutes alongside amazing friends and mentors from our TBG family was magical.
