act too - workshops for professional actors

Designed to give actors the valuable opportunity to seek practical advice and to continue to explore and develop their skills in a secure, non-competitive environment.

We believe that the best person to run a workshop is someone who knows the profession and its experiences from first hand. The people that are invited to run the workshops are encouraged to design them around their own interests and expertise.
