Ian Fenwick
“If you want to play a part in a play, musical, commercial, TV show or film, you have to audition. All actors, even the seasoned pros, know how stressful and demanding auditions can be. Learning to audition well is as important as learning to act well. Without the former, you won’t be doing much of the latter.
“In this two-day workshop you will learn valuable skills that will improve your chances of landing a part in a future production. The workshop is divided into three parts: in session one, you will be introduced to proven methods for preparing for an audition; in session two, you will participate in an audition simulation; in session three, you will receive useful feedback and points to practice to help you with your next “real” audition.
