description The Meisner Technique (Sanford Meisner) Overview

This influential acting technique builds presence through profound listening and authentic, moment-to-moment reaction. By training actors to "live truthfully under imaginary circumstances," it fosters a spontaneous, connected, and emotionally available stage presence. The performer appears fully alive and responsive, which is highly compelling. However, without strong technical foundation (voice, movement), this truthful presence may not project effectively in large venues.
