Course outline

What is the course about?

This course is available to Rep Company members as ongoing training. It is an opportunity to investigate specialised and focused areas of performance, develop techniques and build acting experience.

What topics will we cover?

Each term will have a different focus enabling in-depth work and the opportunity for continued participation. We will look at:
- the styles of individual playwrights
- methodologies of particular practitioners
- styles/ genres from classical to modern.

By the end of this course you should be able to:

- demonstrate a broader experience of performing
- benefit from a deeper understanding of playwrights' intentions and how to serve them
- make appropriate acting choices according to the style
- recognise and respond to contrasting texts.

What level is the course and do I need any particular skills?

This is an advanced course open to Rep Company members.
In order to get the most from the course you will be able to:
• Listen actively and communicate clearly.
• Give and receive constructive feedback.
• Read and analyse scripts to find meaning and clarity.
• Take notes.
• Use numbers to recognise rhythm.

How will I be taught, and will there be any work outside the class?

The class is a workshop situation involving group and individual work.

Are there any other costs? Is there anything I need to bring?
