About the course
(Re)Discover the practice of Stanislavsky with this Actor Refresh evening course, designed for professional actors who would like to deepen and develop their craft.
Konstantin Stanislavsky was an actor and theatre practitioner, who became renowned for his 'system' of actor training and preparation technique. This practical course will cover the basics at a pace suitable for actors with prior acting experience.
You'll leave the course with a selection of techniques which you can incorporate into your personal actor's process.
What will I learn?
- You'll explore key elements of Stanislavsky's 'system'.
- You'll apply the principles of Stanislavsky to text.
Is this course for me?
This course is suitable if you have trained at drama school, or have significant professional acting experience. You don't need to have studied Stanislavsky previously to take part in the course.
Our expert tutor will adapt to the specific requirements and experience of the cohort, and you can expect to be challenged and supported to ensure that you get the most out of the course.
This is a professional level course, and is designed for participants with significant acting experience.

LAMDA's Actor Refresh courses have no 'product' other than the vitally important task of reconnecting with the joy of acting.
In the day-to-day hustle of being a jobbing actor it is so easy to lose sight of your love of acting, and these courses seek to redress this. Where many workshops aimed at professional actors are industry-focused, taking part in an Actor Refresh course is a radical opportunity to simply act.
