The approach is eclectic, with much reliance on Sandy Meisner's defiition that "acting is truthfully responding to an imaginary situation." The leader draws from Meisner, Eric Morris, Viola Spolin and other major approaches to integrate with what the participant already knows.
Leader Evan Nossoff directed the two longest running nonmusicals in Sacramento theater history. One of those productions, The Vagina Monologues, was the first Sacramento production to play in San Francisco.
