This course is designed for actors of all ages who wish to hone their acting skills and audition technique in a positive and inspiring environment. From Shakespeare to Contemporary playwrights, this course will prepare and invigorate actors. It also aims to perfect audition technique and increase confidence levels. You will have both voice and movement sessions, working to free the expansive expression needed when working at the likes of the National Theatre. Meet creative likeminded people in an atmosphere of support where the goals are clear. The sense of play together with your ambition creates an ensemble focused to get you where you wish to go. You need to find within yourself and the speech the X Factor which gives you the best opportunity to get into all the premier Drama Schools. Whether auditioning for theatre, film or television how you walk into that room and perform is all that's between you and that part!
