IN SCENE ADVANCED
WITH ASSOCIATE ARTISTIC DIRECTOR
HARRY HAYNES
This isn’t just another scene study – it’s an opportunity to refine your artistry and discover the final, essential touches that elevate your performance.
Over four days, actors will elevate scene work while exploring new exercises to deepen their connection to character and craft with Associate Artistic Director Harry Haynes. Actors arrive having completed their own extensive preparation, ready to make a bold and fully realised first pass at the scene. From there, Harry will workshop powerful and transformative techniques, applied in the space.
Movement psychology for dynamic transformation and expressive blocking.
Song into speech to unlock tempo and flow.
Sensory exploration to deepen connection to the world and relationships.
