Devising and Bringing a Script to Life - Writing, Directing and Acting

Participants, in pairs or groups, will learn how to devise, then act and direct, a short story - and have a great time discovering how to bring their script to life. We’ll also look at the director/actor relationship, casting, rehearsing, acting styles, blocking and performance. We’ll explore specific tools and techniques used by actors and directors and gain experiential insight into the actor's and director's craft. Conducted by David Swann (Writer, Actor, TV and Film Director Round the Twist, Crackers, Skithouse, The Sounds of Aus).
Friday 5 January.
