Founded in 1981, Acting Studio Chicago has been serving the Chicago theatrical community for more than three decades. While in Los Angeles in the late seventies, Jane Brody, C.S.A., worked closely with Michael Shurtleff, the well-known teacher, casting director, and author of the actor's "bible," Audition. When she moved to Chicago, Jane was inspired to continue teaching his method and founded the studio. Since 1995, Studio Director Rachael Patterson has continued to offer training based on the twelve guideposts of Michael Shurtleff. Mastery of these principles augments instinct and talent with a practical set of skills. This clear cut technique demystifies the actor's process and offers a path to creative discovery through action. The Shurtleff Method compliments Stanislavski, Meisner, Uta Hagen, Stella Adler and other acting approaches. But by using the Guideposts, our teachers share a common philosophy and a common language. A student’s work in one class is strengthened and deepened in subsequent classes due to this common approach. Our teachers, who have studied at Julliard, American Conservatory Theatre, DePaul, Northwestern, University of Illinois and other training programs share a vocabulary and a specific way of approaching the text. Acting Studio Chicago has been the most recommended professional training center in Chicago since 1981.

Housed in one of the only graduate-level, contemporary, live-art departments in the country, the Master of Fine Arts in Studio Performance program educates a new generation of artists who will continue to produce work that not only makes history, but makes a difference in the world. The Performance department at SAIC has a long history of producing artists who create highly experimental work that responds to radically changing concepts of the body, time-based art, social practice, new media technologies, and the social and cultural conditions of a globally mobile society. Exceeding boundaries is at the heart of the Performance department ethos, and students are encouraged to explore diverse artistic disciplines and ideas in their performance research through performance re-enactments and re-dos, socially engaged/activist performance, abandoned practices, immersive technologies and social networking performance, environmental and site-specific performance, and choreographic actions. Interdisciplinary Explorations and Rigorous Critique SAIC's interdisciplinary curriculum complements the fluid nature of performance by allowing students to study in other departments and engage with graduate advisors both within and beyond the Performance department as suits their individual practices. Rigorous approaches to assessment and critique are applied throughout the program, with an emphasis on structured dialogue and response. In the third semester, students present their thesis plans, with review by the Department Chair, Graduate Coordinator, and other Performance faculty to ascertain the degree to which they are developing as professional artists. Professional Practice Opportunities Faculty nurture students as independent practitioners, and provide guidance and encouragement for showings and curatorial projects. Graduate students have the opportunity to share their work with wider audiences through public events such as the annual Fall New Blood Performance Festival and the Spring MFA Performance IMPACT Thesis Festival. Guest artists are regularly invited for symposia, workshops, and individual graduate critique sessions, including Faith Wilding, Lee Wen, Ron Athey, Jaime McMurry, Erica Mott, Kira O'Reilly, Vlatka Horvat, La Ribot, Lynn Lu, and many others. While at SAIC, many performance students work collaboratively or individually in the galleries and spaces in Chicago's performance community, including a network of experimental, non-traditional, and artist-initiated spaces. In many cases, the city itself becomes an urban classroom as students engage with numerous communities through projects and performances. Our students are challenged to think of themselves not simply as individual artists, but as active participants in the shaping of contemporary culture. Possible Performance Paths As contemporary practice moves fluidly across materials and methods, many courses at SAIC address the intersection between sculptural, performative, interactive, immersive, screen/camera/code and material disciplines and explore their shared methods, materials, and critical/theoretical discourse. Graduate students are encouraged to consider their art-making process as an interdisciplinary practice that can range across various departments including, but not limited to, Fiber and Material Studies; Sculpture; Performance;Fashion Design; Art and Technology Studies; Film, Video, New Media, and Animation; and Ceramics. Students are encouraged to confer with faculty and graduate advisors to map a course of interdisciplinary study that reflects the latest development in contemporary practices in these fields. The following are some pathways to consider: Body/Performance: Intro to Performance; The Performing Body; Performing Next Feminisms; Movement Research/Improvisation; Bodies in Motion; Durations: Long, Medium, Short; and Movement/Presence: Body as Site Object Performance: Material Action, Puppetry, and Performance and Event Production Media Performance: Performance Media; Mixed Reality Performance; Performance and Video; Live Presence/Virtual Spaces; Performing for the Camera; and Fusions: Film, Video, Performance Installation/Site-Specific Performance: Site Practice; Tactical Performance; Event Production; and Performance Installation Collaborative Performance: Systems, structures: Methods of creation; Make it Strange; Collaboration/Directing for Performance; Group Work: and Between Theatre and Performance Critical/Activist Social and Political Performance: Extreme bodies in Performance; Border Crossing; Performing Next Feminisms; and Tactical Performance Performance Writing: Body/Text: Performative Writing; Scripting/Acting for Performance; and Narrative in Performance Re-enactment/Reperformance: Parasitic Practices; Performing the Document; Performing Fictions; and Performance Documentation
