O nalee teaches a class like no other. You can enter her class as a complete beginner or continue your training as a professional and still grow in leaps and bounds.

The method Onalee uses is based on “Allowing the character to play you.” This allows the actor to let the writer’s work play them. An inherent energy exists in any script or character and it is essential that the actor not analyze or intellectualize the script before hand. An actor must come to the work and be able to completely live in the moment and express themselves in the most vulnerable emotional states. One of the main problems with trained actors is that they over-analyze scripts and predetermine how to say the lines, which makes it impossible for them to stay present in the moment when acting opposite another actor.
