SHOEBOX Theatre is continuing its training programme for actors with a new course called Exploring Expressionism.

This is a level two course for actors aged 18 and over, who have had previous acting training.

This might be of interest to actors who are on a year out before drama school, or wanting to continue and diversity their training.

The classes will help develop further insight into established methods and techniques, through practice, critical reflection and in-class performances. The workshops are designed to be both practical and challenging.

  Participants will examine the performance methods of actor and playwright Steven Berkoff. The classes will explore Berkoff’s engaging and intense performance technique, which is inspired by expressionist film and practitioners such as LeCoq, Artaud and Grotowski.?

 The course runs on Tuesdays from 7.30pm to 9.30pm, for ten weeks, from April 24 to June 26, and it costs £70 to take part.
