Sundays
TAKE THE LEAP IN YOUR PERFORMANCE
The Sunday Workshops are about showing up and showing out in a way that is completely new, different and exciting for you as an actor, artist or performer.
In this series of workshops you will be given the tools to break the rules on yourself. To create a new narrative and install a new mindset that builds momentum around your identity as an actor, artist and performer. Over the course of the month the aim is for you to transform the way you work on self taping, audition techniques, monologues and scene work. This is an intensive exploration of mindset and changing the stories that we tell and sell ourselves. Take The Leap is a performance workshop that dives deep into the core of who you think you are in order to create a shift in your creative consciousness.
Practically what does that look like? In a nurturing and non-judgmental environment it means being pushed out of your comfort zone. It means creating a safe space that allows you to share your truths, fears and insecurities as a way of liberating and freeing up your creative and psychological energies.
This workshop is centered on trust. "What you hear here, when you leave here, let it stay here" It is a co-creative space that eschews competition in exchange for creative co-operation.
At the end of each of these workshop sessions participants will be invited to the local bar or cafe to get to know each other and create community together as we support each other in a common goal. Which is transformation as you take your talent and creative goals to the next level.
