You will experience a condensed version of Matthew Dunster''s approach to rehearsals and process – including script analysis, creating character, and how to vividly bring both to life. It’ll be a chance to jump into a specific scene with detail and guidance and receive feedback and direction. All within a focused, creative and supportive environment.
