About Actor Refresh Summer
Meeting twice a week for six weeks, the Actor Refresh Summer Programme will allow professional actors to reconnect with their craft and community.
The course will combine text with methods such as those from Uta Hagen, Stanislavski, Chekhov, and Laban to remind working actors of their craft.
This course has no 'product' except reconnecting with the joy of acting, which can often get lost in the day-to-day hustle of being a jobbing actor. Each week you will work on duologues or small group scenes.
The Wednesday evening session will be held by the same practitioner each week, who will guide you through working with a text(s). The Thursday session will have a different practitioner each week, introducing you to new ideas and practices, and helping you to build your acting practice.
