Adult Acting - Different Every Night!

Term 2 Dates 2024 - Tuesday 30th April – Tuesday 18th June 7:30pm - 9:30pm @ The Court Theatre, Addington

Price: $190 (8 classes)

This program offers a great opportunity to develop performance and creative thinking skills. Each term consists of eight sessions led by a professional theatre maker. Participants will learn various skills including acting, text analysis, voice, devising, audition technique, and how to work creatively as part of a group. 

In Term 2 students will explore the theme of Different Every Night!

When you're performing the same show multiple times, it can become easy to get stuck in imitation or repetition. Students will explore how to approach text and free themselves from "one offer". Building skills and learning tools to come to the stage every night with fresh impulses and choices, you will respond to your scene partners in real time! Students will use duo, trio, and ensemble scenes to explore these skills.
