Jeffrey Bihr Studio provides a focused environment for rapid advancement in the techniques of theater.
Jeffrey's insightful teaching cuts to the heart of the theatrical question at hand without fuss or over-analysis.
He catalyzes students' ability to identify and solve problems with grace and humor when their images are too general; when they have overlooked textual clues to character; when the size of their presentation is inappropriate; when their bodies are not fully engaged.
Jeffrey's experience as an actor, director, composer and master teacher in America, Japan, London, Germany and Canada results in a training technique that draws from a variety of sources and styles.
