Theatre @ Risk performance workshops
Artistic Director Chris Bendall will be running a nine-week acting workshop on working with text. Guest Workshop leaders include Simon Kingsley-Hall (Physical Theatre Specialist), Julianne Eveleigh (Voice & Alexander Technique Specialist) and Victor Bizzotto (Theatre @ Risk Associate Director.)

During the 9 weeks of this course, participants will have the opportunity to develop their craft as actors with intensive guidance from qualified theatre professionals.

The course will specialise in working with text, with scripts sourced from contemporary stage and screen texts. We will explore approaches to performing contemporary writing, with focus on character development, voice, physical theatre and movement, status, impulse and improvisation.

The workshop will culminate in an informal presentation of short scenes rehearsed and developed over the course. The course is designed for performers with some previous experience.

Venue: The Warehouse, Little Errol Street, North Melbourne
Dates: Tuesdays 7-9pm, 29 Aug-24 Oct
