Congratulations you got the role! 👏 As Autumn sets in we’re exploring the dark side of humanity when hysteria and mindless persecution are given power. Join us at Character Lab this Tuesday! Book online!

Next Tuesday 🔥🔥🔥 A play written in protest against the fear mongering, prejudicial politics at the time - unfortunately a play that has not lost its potency today. CHARACTER LAB is a boutique session building your version of the most iconic characters ever written. Small class sizes means you are constantly working - not sitting and watching others - but crafting and living. Actors you have been cast as John Proctor, come play! 👏👏👏 #johnproctor #character-study #melbourneactors

New Lucid Body Intro Workshop this Friday! 🙌 The full Acting Foundations series now begins May 30. I’m excited to be hosting these workshops at @melbourneactorsguild in St Kilda. A 2-hour introduction to the Lucid Body process on May 15, followed by a 4-week Acting Foundations series (Lucid Body Levels 1 & 2) beginning May 30. This psychophysical acting process offers a clear, practical framework for the actor. Drawing on the body’s centres of emotion and impulse, Jungian psychology, archetypes, and principles from yoga, modern dance, and neuroscience, the Lucid Body supports actors to recognise and release habitual patterns, deepen embodiment, and access new physical and emotional possibilities in performance. The Intro workshop is designed as a way into the work, and for those who want to continue, the $40 fee can be applied toward the full 4-week training. Lucid Body Intro Friday May 15
6–8pm

Today I was thinking about this classic question that most of us find triggering - “What are you in right now?” The issue here is that it sets up the actor as an employee rather than an artist. You get to choose which attitude you take and you don’t need to write your own work to call yourself an artist. “What are you working on at the moment?” Empowers you to choose so@thing you’re interested in - I’m working on my version of Hamlet. I’m investigating a villain character who’s actually kind. I’m learning the works of Tennessee Williams leading roles - Whatever, that’s the beauty of it just because you’re not in a job doesn’t mean you don’t get to act. WHAT ARE YOU WORKING ON AT THE MOMENT? #acting #actorslife #actorasartist
