Professional Development
We believe actor training is a lifelong challenge and offer workshops with recognised experts, in a variety of fields, to those working in the profession, keen to hone their performance skills.
Throughout the year, we run workshops for professional actors, providing the opportunity to explore new ways of working and refresh the skills they already have.
We invite practitioners at the top of their field to share their expertise with local actors. In the last few years we’ve had sessions with Donna Soto-Morettini (author and casting director for BBC’s The Voice), Michael Corbidge (Voice & Text Coach for the Royal Shakespeare Company) and Judylee Vivier (Director of Acting at the Brooklyn College, New York).
We keep course fees to a minimum and are keen to respond to requests from actors and agents with suggestions for further workshops.
