    Course details

    This course gives you the chance to develop unique characters and to immerse yourself in the world of a play.

    By being introduced to a new technique each week, you will be guided through the process of building a character physically and emotionally.

    Like all City Acting courses and workshops, these classes are extremely beneficial for anyone who would like to improve their communication skills and become more aware of the way they present themselves at work and in their daily life.

    • Learn the building blocks of the rehearsal process
    • Continue to learn acting techniques from Stanislavski to Michael Chekhov
    • Find unique personal forms of vocal and physical expression to unlock a role
    • Feel the exhilaration of creating a character in which you can find yourself

    The drama course is spread over 7 weekly sessions of 2 hours each. We keep group sizes small in order for the facilitator to give you a lot of individual feedback to encourage an intimate, friendly, and fun atmosphere in which you can learn and grow.
