ACTING SKILLS: Creating That Element of MagicThis promises to be a hugely enjoyable practical exploration of how to be a better actor. A diverse fun course looking at many aspects of creating characters. Highly experienced tutors Kevin Dyer and Janys Chambers will lead sessions on relaxation, voice, text and the spoken word, how an actor prepares, physical ways into character, stage presence, getting the best out of text and mask work. The course will combine real, useful acting tips and methods with a sideways look at the special "magical" qualities of performance. There will be an emphasis on people's own particular strengths and needs. On Friday the group will show and share work of the week.

Accommodation is in single rooms with en-suite option available.
