Part of our Actors Toolkit series - The focus is on building, improving and maintaining the fundamental skills of a professional, well rounded performer.

This is an ongoing class in 3 week blocks. Within each block we will dive deep into one scene and really work on exploring and getting the most out of the text and your scene partner. This is your weekly workout.

The industry has veered towards online submissions and self tapes and the sooner we can get comfortable with the format, the better.

With the online structure of this class, we will aim to focus your work, deepening your connection to it and connecting to your partner and objective in an honest and direct way. To that end, we will be exploring techniques to plant emotional landmines, connect to the text and your partner on a deeper level and work on moving the work from your head into your body. We will also work on honing your self tapes.

The aim will be to work on your scene and gain feedback so that you can film it for your reel and leave with footage that anyone would be proud to show a casting director.

Although the sessions will be online, you will be expected to rehearse in person where possible.

This is a mixed level class.

Thursdays, 8-10pm

This class is for any actor looking to stop performing and start living in the work. Join Davina as she draws on the philosophy, techniques and methods of Sanford Meisner.

The specific techniques and exercises covered will get you out of your ‘head’ and into the moment. Becoming comfortable with putting the focus on your scene partner and the immediate surroundings will allow you to stop 'acting' and start living in your work.

Actors will be expected to commit multiple hours outside of class as well as to have a copy of ‘Sanford Meisner on Acting’ as a companion to the course.

Wednesdays, 7-9PM

Join professional Opera Singer and Actor Isaac Droscha on a 6 week course that will awaken and develop the expressive potential of your vocal instrument.

You can expect to explore the basic techniques of breath support and projection, as well as develop the overall range, colour, timbre, and other expressive qualities of your voice.

We will look at text study and how different genres relate to the voice, using the voice as source for character inspiration and how to manipulate it when necessary for a role.

We will also cover an introduction to thinking about dialects and accents; diction as acting; phrasing and beats; voice for camera, stage, and studio sound (voice over and radio).

A tremendously useful class for any actor.
