The Creative Playground

The Creative Playground is an Intermediate course designed for those who have some prior experience and wish to engage in creative play and explore acting skills with like-minded individuals and under the guidance of experienced professionals.

The course attracts an eclectic range of students from professional actors, teachers and writers through to experienced amateur actors and relative newcomers who have completed an ACT Summer School or workshop.

10 weeks of creative playing! Playground runs throughout the year and you can join for as many or as few terms as you wish. These terms are designed to allow for constant challenge, variety and an introduction to new skills and concepts. The term is made up of a mixture of single sessions and linked sessions. So there may be a Meisner class one week followed by two or three weeks of working on contemporary scripts. Classes include Voice, Movement, Dance, Acting Technique, Meisner, Screen Acting, Commedia dell'Arte, Neutral Mask, Stanislavsky, Improvisation, Devising and more.

Classes are held each Thursday night from 7pm - 10pm and run for 10 consecutive weeks each term. There are three terms every year and you can do as many or as few terms as you wish. Enrolment is on a termly basis so the minimum commitment is for one 10 week term.
