In the rehearsal room (and classroom) he works with actors to help find the reality in their characters and relationships, always staying within the shows overall vision. Kris has been teaching theatre just as long as he has been directing. As an instructor he ensures that lessons are ideal for both new and experienced actors. Every “student” receives personalized instruction, with honest and useful feedback. The classroom is always a fun and positive environment, focusing on developing the individuals strengths, making sure they have the confidence needed to perfect their skills. “Every performer has their own strengths and unique abilities. It is my goal to pull out those strengths and develop them. From the audition to the final performance, actors will be ready for anything that is thrown at them. It doesn’t matter if you are training for a professional career, college auditions, school plays, or just to gain confidence in yourself. Every road is different and that’s what makes every performers story so interesting.” For full bio, production history, photos, reviews and more visit www.kristoferkauff.com.
