About Us
The Acting Singers Project was incorporated on February 28, 2000 and later gained 501(c)3 status which allowing us to receive donations that can claimed on our donor's taxes. So far our two largest were from The Town of Deham Cultural Council for $500; and from Daniel B. Kelly for $12,000.
The Acting Singers Project is founded on the acting principles of Konstantin Stanislavsky. From our very first performances we attempted to "become" the characters that we portrayed. Our acting teacher, Amelia Broome, gave us several exercises to help us to get inside of the characters, to feel what they feel and act in the way that they would act. As a result we were able to abandon the need for a director. Our performances were the result of the interaction of the characters that we became in rehearsal and performance.
Some of our experiments failed, but in general there was a freshness, an excitement and a realism to what we produced. Most, but not all of our attempts are featured on this website: some are presented only with audio, while others can be seen and heard as well. We hope that you enjoy this experience.
