WORKSHOP FORMAT
24 & 25 September | 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM (2 occurrences) | This is a one time fee and is inclusive for all the sessions in this course
Across this epic 2-day intensive, you’ll work closely with Miranda Cromwell in a safe, playful and ensemble-led environment, exploring text with one of the UK’s most exciting and celebrated theatre directors.
Over the two days, Miranda will lead you through exercises, techniques and practical text work designed to unlock your instincts, challenge your choices and encourage you to approach text with greater freedom, confidence and imagination.
This is an opportunity to get out of your head and into the work, to take risks, make bold choices and discover new ways into character and story. Through ensemble exploration and detailed work on text, you’ll be encouraged to re-imagine what’s on the page, trust your impulses and have fun with the process.
Expect two days of discovery, play and serious creative exploration, with the space to push yourself, experiment and build confidence in your work.
