On the whole actors love doing monologues.
So ... why do monologues go wrong so often?
In WEBINAR 10: you will learn where all the traps are; why those traps so cleverly entice you to fall into them; how to recognise them and how to avoid them.
Bring a monologue to the session so you can test out the techniques and see how they work for you.

Getting your choices into the ballpark is the first step for the actor. Once you have done that understanding how to refine and adjust them without losing your way is the next step.
Because monologues can be really challenging they are a great skill builder for you basic acting process.

THIS IS FOR YOU IF...
- Clear and logical explanations work for you
- An acting adventure is always fun
- You love being involved with the development of new ideas
- Understanding more about the actors and directors skill is your passion
- Feel you often fall into the same traps
- Often aren't clear about your choices so you just wing it.
IF YOU DON’T HAVE THESE SKILLS …
- rather than being relaxed at tackling new ideas you will be stressed
- you could restrict your openness to new processes
- applying yourself to unusual tasks will be challenging
- making the obvious choice will become a more regular trap
- you won't be confident about floating an unusual idea
- the same mistakes will continue to occur
ABOUT RICHARD...
Over his twenty-five year directing career Richard found that that there were many unusual behaviours that he would have to encourage actors to adopt for their character. One thing became quickly plain. No matter how odd the behaviour was there was always a conscious or unconscious reason driving it. Everything happened for a reason.
Working out how and why unusual behaviours occurred was fascinating. Then learning to translate that knowledge into acting technique was another fascinating challenge. He became very skilled at it.
Actors have to do the same thing. On some occasions they too are confronted by the unusual and have to start from scratch to work out a practical way to apply a new understanding to a performance.
This webinar will also therefore explore learning how to learn.
