Comment:

She's very kind and interesting- her lectures were quite open ended and discussion based. I always love classes that aren't too demanding but still give you lots to think about. A very low stress professor, but not by any means a boring or lazy one. Wish I'd taken another class with her.

she is a really nice women. Her class is easy, but we also have to do some unexpected amount of writing about our character. Fair grader and very passionate about theater. You will get to know your class mate really well in this class. Have fun!

Lesley is wonderful and knows her stuff! You will gain so much from her if you work hard! Readings are fascinating and she is an outstanding discussion leader. Don't just sign up because you think it will be easy. She is always delighted to provide extra help or to meet you at the Forum to talk.

Comment:

Leslie is sweet and a little scatter brained, but helpful nonetheless. The class is easy and a lot of fun. Her comments are clear when directly addressing acting choices, but her instructions for assignments can leave you confused--however, she never makes you pay for her mistakes. If she flubbs a due dat up, she'll give an extension. Love her!

Comment:

Really, really unorganized as we often spend ten minute at the beginning of class trying to figure out when things are due. Never gives straight answers. Classes tend to be dull and repetitive; how many more times do we have to watch other people do this scene? Nice lady, though, and easy grader.

Excellent prof. Very knowledgable and well read. GREAT analytical discussions! She is a hands-off director in the theatre, but in the classroom she's magical!

Comment:

Good enough professor. Wasn't pleased with her very brief coverage of Stanislavski in the fundamentals course. Can be passive-aggressive in communicating what she wants from you as an actor.

Lesley is the softest prof in the deartment. Her lectures are unclear at times as she's a relatively new Professor. Her lit/crit courses do cover the major canonical works however, and she allows each student to pursue thier own interests in papers
