East to Resume Study Of Technique in Acting
Explains Why She's Struggling With Sense - Memory, Voice and Body Control, Ete. ; It’s To Make Stardom No Accident.
By VIRGINIA MOORHEAD MANNON : When an actress handles a shoddy piece of muslin
as if it were velvet, it ‘becomes velvet to the audience. That’s the type of acting technique Miss Mary Wildhackis learning in Mme. Maria Ouspenskaya’s New York dramatic school. If hard work and perseverance will doit
Miss Wildhack is bound to succeed.
Miss Wildhack who has been spending the holidays with her mother, Mrs. Donald Morris, and Mr. Morris returned today to resume her studies of sense memory, voice and body control and observation which are the very substance of acting technique. It is by voice study that one can be an Arkansas hillbilly one night and a Park Avenue sociglite the next, she says. And it’s because one has achieved body control that one can be a sprightly Ariel one moment and a corpulent Irish washerwoman next. The idea behind Mme. Ouspenskaya’s school is there is a definite art in acting. An actor learns his trade as a musician learns to play his instrument. He learns become conscious of the things he does unconsciously. . ‘Miss Wildhack cites the example of working in a warm room . on trying to feel as cold as one does while waiting for a bus on a freezing day. Or bringing out of her memory the sound of a telephone and reacting to it. Feeling is learned by touching everyone’s dress in a class and then with eyes shut recognizing each person by touch. Many persons have a warped idea about acting, thinking it’s accidental, according to Miss Wildhack. A person with talent may be * good accidentally, but training teaches one to act with conscious inspiration, she declares.

Mme. Ouspenskaya, by the way, came to America in 1921 with the Moscow Art Company, as did Richard Boleslavsky. She started her school in a cold, damp New York basement with three pupils. Now she has a large studio, has accepted 75 pupils and, in addition, . Sives private lessons to most of the “big names” on the American e. = Broadway producers send actors to her before they go into production. She is the only dramatic teacher today who is also acting on Broadway and in the movies. She played in the motion picture, “Conquest,” both the picture and stage versions of “Dodsworth” and was mentioned as one of the 10 outstanding feature players of the year. She doesn’t place her pupils because she believes that for those who want something enough and who will work hard enough the job will come. The school gives no public performances. Productions there are rather in the nature of experiments. . ® x = #2 x = Miss Wildhack’s drama debut was made in the chorus at Orchard School. During her freshman year in Tudor Hall she played leading parts and appeared in several school plays. Her second year she did stagecraft work)and “neglected everyihing for building scenery out of orange crates.” During her senior year she was president of the Masquers Club and was awarded the club’s achievement trophy given to the student who had done the most work in dramatics in the school. In 1933 she went to Briarcliffe Junior College where for two years she took all the theater courses and studied stage scenery de‘signing. During her second year there she had one of three parts in a one-act play which was taken to New York and presented one night in the Music Chamber of Carnegie Hall.

After her last year in Briarcliffe Miss Wildhack served as an apprentice during the summer with the Peterborough Players in Peterborough, N. H. For the last two years she has been a member of the organization’s technical staff. : Winter before last she assisted the dramatic instructor at Tudor Hall and last winter did sketches for two sets for Tudor plays. She went to Mme. OQuspenskaya tnis fall to begin the study of acting technique, a two-year course. Asked if she ever felt stage fright Miss Wildhack replied she was afraid she did. “But in doing a scene if you really believe you are the character, there’s no stage fright,” she said. “You have to become objective about yourself and think of yourself as an instrument. Aller all, a violin has no inferiority complex.
