Acting for Beginners
City Acting is an acting class for beginners in London. The courses are spread over 8 weekly sessions of 2 hours each in central London locations such as Tottenham Court Road, Clapham Junction, Swiss Cottage or Camden Town.
City Acting's goal is to help people develop acting skills and improve their confidence when speaking in front of an audience. It explores how acting can boost communication skills to reveal people's self.
The courses are run by professional actors trained at the most prestigious Drama Academy of London such as RADA or LAMDA.
The class "City Acting Fun" introduces to techniques that help gain confidence and feel more comfortable in front of an audience; including breathing, relaxation, concentration, building up a character, etc. In these classes, the students work from text and on improvisation, learn to move on stage and how to master your voice and movements.
By the end of the course, the students have learnt many of the basic tools that actors use on a daily basis in theatre, film and television. In addition, you should also expect to have learnt a lot about yourself.
The groups are kept to a maximum of 14 in order to maintain an intimate, friendly and fun atmosphere with whom people can grow and learn.
City Acting has also developed a corporate communication training programme called "City Acting Business" to help to unlock staff potential and contribute to companies success. City Acting's professional actors are trained to bridge people's emotions and behavior with regards to specific business needs. The workshops/courses are tailored around the companies priorities:
- Presentation : make real impact on your clients and colleagues
- Communication : convey your message with persuasive conviction
- Team building : to make 1+1=3 come true
The course can be done with a camera so that your group can see itself back. This maximises the Learning and Development experience.
