+ WORKSHOP FORMAT

Focusing on Constellations by Nick Payne, this workshop day will be an opportunity to explore and experience a condensed version of Audrey's approach to rehearsals and process – including script analysis, creating character, and how to vividly bring both to life. It’ll be a chance to jump into a specific scene with detail and guidance – all within the incredibly rich and beautifully crafted world of this brilliant play.

Having looked at your Spotlight CV beforehand, Audrey will pair you with another actor and cast you in your own scene. On the day, there will be time to explore the play together as a company, before moving on to work on and rehearse your own individual scenes in your actor pairings, perform them, receive feedback and direction and the chance to perform them again. All within a focused, creative and supportive environment.
