To me, that is an ongoing and ever unfolding question or experiment in a number of different ways, but it has a number of consequences it seems to me for the Human race: can our Humanity be nurtured in such a way that makes us more peaceful or more considerate, more humane ? On a more institutional level, to what degree can WE, at the Studio, organize ourselves to do that better and better and more effectively to make more people the beneficiaries of it? While I have said a lot, there is much more that remains to be said and to be seen. Tom Oppenheim: The Mission of the Studio extends from the insight that growth of as an actor and growth as a human being are synonymous and the mission is to create an environment that nurtures Theatre artists and audiences so that they value Humanity- their own and othersвЂ™ as their first priority while bringing Art and Education to the Community. So today, October 2016, is there anything that has not been said yet? While his main focus is to form the cultural dimension of the Studio or the outreach dimension, Tom Oppenheim appears to be the perfect embodiment of the complexity and yet down-to-earth missions of Stella Adler and the Studio.Д¬.N.: You have talked at length about the Stella Adler Studio of Acting and Stella Adler. At times, he lets the words linger inside his mind - does it meet a souvenir, a thought, or the meanders of intertwined experiences? - until he finds a thread, another word, that gives way to new stimulating perspectives, until it sometimes hit a more intimate chord. And, far from being blasГ©, he connects the words and issues at stake with his present preoccupations. Tom lets the questions sink in as if he were receiving the sometimes so often heard questions for the first time. As he pays close attention to each word, he allows them to dive into an infinite space - the web of his sensorial and intellectual corporal habitat - that needs a certain amount of time to travel in, and out. All matter is universal to him and he treats all my questions as such. He does not chit chat and he does not take anything for granted. As a fervent protector of Theatre and Art, Tom does not think within any trivial frame. Whether we are talking over existential matters or building projects, one quality always stems from a discussion with Tom: the complexity of the human being. In his office midtown Manhattan, he generously gave us some time to pause and think together. Together we have been developing artistic and pedagogical bridges between France and New York since 2008. I have known and worked with Tom Oppenheim and the Studio for over 15 years and I have had the great privilege and honor to be named French Ambassador of the Studio. The Interview:Д¬Г©line Nogueira: Director of the Stella Adler Studio in New York and grandson of Stella Adler, Tom Oppenheim is a pillar and guardian of the internationally known legacy, techniques and philosophy of Stella Adler.
