"Definitely do it, take the chance, even if you're nervous just go into it with an open mind because everyone is in the same boat and really supportive. Be open to try new things and be open to failure because no one's going to judge you and it's all part of the process of growing."

FAQs

What equipment/space will I need?

All classes will be delivered through the ZOOM platform. To get the most out of the course we would suggest you use a laptop or desktop computer rather than a phone. We would also suggest that you ensure you have a good secure access to Wi-Fi/Internet connection. You will also need a suitable space in your home where you can participate in classes/workshops. We would suggest this is a private space that will allow you to engage vocally and physically in the work.

Do I have to do every session?

Ideally yes, so you can get as much out of the course as possible. In order to create a safe space, we will not be filming the workshops, so there won’t be the opportunity to re-watch sessions.

Do I have to audition to get on the course?

No, you do not need to audition for this course. 

Who is this course for?

These courses are designed for everyone in the process of applying for drama school, regardless of prior experience. They will provide introductory level training while also providing the opportunity for people with more experience to brush up on skills and solidify techniques and artistry.

Due to the intensive nature of our courses fluency in the English language is essential.
