All about the course

Language is an essential part of our identity and is a key part of an actor’s toolkit. This two-week online course will develop your language and acting skills, whilst exploring how words and language can be used to create characters and express emotions.  

This course is designed for people who consider English as a second language. Using the dynamic and practical tools of drama training, this unique course will extend your communication skills and build your confidence.

The course concludes with an ‘open rehearsal’ of these scenes, attended by your tutors and fellow students.
