Adult Workshops

We are all aware of the training that athletes do in order to maintain their fitness for their sport. We
are also aware of the amount of practice that musicians and dancers do. Actors also have to maintain their fitness for acting.

Some do it by constantly being in plays, others are unable to commit more than one night a week yet wish to continue to practice as actors. This workshop is designed for all actors to allow them to continue to practice their art to whatever level they are able to achieve at their own rate. Once an actor has paid the fee for their first term they are able to continue at half price for as long as they wish.

The Adult Workshop comprises of warm up procedures, movement, voice, improvisation,
characterization, mime, introduction to stage fights, and styles of acting. In addition to the workshop
there are three specific levels of achievement; Level One, for the less experienced, Level Two for
those with some experience, and Level Three for those who are looking for advanced work or a
master class. All levels should attend the workshop.

Level One
- is designed for those who have little or no previous experience and are looking for a
way of preparing for an audition. It concentrates on preparation of audition pieces both modern and
period.

Level Two
- is designed for those who have had some experience and are looking to extend their range. They will work on short extracts from scripts to explore specific characterization, movement, vocal demands and ensemble.

Level Three - is designed for those who are experienced and wish to further develop their abilities.
They will work in depth on a major role.

Times

The Adult Workshop is held ay 6.00pm on Tuesdays and runs for 3 hours.

Fees

The first term of enrolment is $110.00 Subsequent terms are $55.00 provided they follow immediately.
