Advanced acting class: The Play is an advanced acting course where you will discover the thrill of performing a full length play, taking a script from page to stage!

The focus of this course, is the rehearsal and performance of a contemporary theatre production, staged in the Darlo Drama Theatre across a season of three performances!

Advanced Acting: The Play is open to actors who have completed Beginner Acting: Levels One, Two & Three at Darlo Drama acting studio or similar courses elsewhere. This course will ask new things of you as an actor and will challenge you in wonderful and empowering ways.

You will gain a fundamental understanding and experience of the advanced acting processes involved in staging an entire play, from advanced acting techniques, rehearsal & interpretation to performance.

Working as an ensemble, blocking & script analysis is also developed in this course under the guidance of your Industry relevant Director. Our directors are all trained actors and have been teaching and directing in Sydney for longer than we can remember so you will be guided through the process under a wealth of knowledge!

This course can be repeated as each new play uses different scripts, each with their unique challenges and learning opportunities.
