Michael Matthys 10644 Bloomfield Street, Apt. 4 Toluca Lake, CA 91602 Phone (323) 683-7846 Email mjmatthys@yahoo.com SUMMARY In addition to being an actor, I have made a commitment to bring my experience and the joy and enthusiasm I have for theatre, film, and television to the classroom. This has been a richly rewarding experience for me, and, I believe, for my students. I have been teaching consistently for the past five years while continuing to act locally. I have performed in over 100 productions, ranging from classical theatre to contemporary drama and dance, independent film to prime time television. Through the myriad of experiences I have had in the performing arts, I have honed techniques for performance which have worked for me and which I believe will work for others. My areas of specialization include Physical Acting (Viewpoints), Linklater Voice, Shakespeare, Meisner, Stanislavski, Text, Acting for the Camera, and Auditioning. I am a well rounded performer/teacher/director eager to share what I have learned in the field.
(Note: all performances from 1992 on were under the jurisdiction of AEA, SAG, or AFTRA. I have included some AEA 99 seat performances, not all.)
