Actors Space teachers, Marian Masoliver and Simon Edwards leading a theatre workshop

 

 

our approach - the teachers - the space

Our aim is to empower the actor to be free to play.

Many things are involved in acting; it is not just about technique. The fun and the freedom that one can experience through acting are essential for the delivery of a strong performance. We know that to get to that place where the actor is free to play we have to cultivate a strong sense of trust and a solid foundation of fun and safety.

Throughout these acting courses we develop a relationship with each individual, taking them through their own personal journeys. Everyone has different needs. We 'read' those needs and give the tools to each person so that they can develop, from where they are, in their acting skills.

 

 

Our feedback is always honest and truthful but constructive. In this environment the actor feels supported, safe and not judged

 

 

This approach gives the actor a chance to try new things without fear and even to get it wrong. Through encouragement, enjoyment of the work and the right techniques and discipline each individual is guided to a place of genuine creation.

The Creative actor

These residential workshops are intensive. As actors and teachers we have a very high standard of work, which helps the group learn and develop quickly. In a short period of time the students create great work.

Working in this way we have seen participants blossom time and time again.
