LAST AUDITION WORKSHOP FOR 2006
The deadline for payment of fees for Round Six Audition Workshop falls on Monday 9th October. THERE IS STILL TIME TO ENROL and be assessed by two extremely experienced casting directors - Nick Hamon and Neighbours’Jan Russ. Actors who already have enrolled must pay their fees to confirm their enrolment by 9th October.

There are two ways to participate in these workshops. Actors can build their skills by attending three Saturday morning sessions with Richard Sarell to explore, extend and focus audition process and then be assessed by the visiting casting directors ($310). Or they can test their existing skills by just booking to see the casting directors ($145). FOR DATES AND TIMES CLICK HERE

These workshops are extremely successful in improving actors auditioning capabilities. Casting Directors are regularly commenting on the high standard they are assessing at Rehearsal Room workshops.

Brian Drillinger is visiting The Rehearsal Room. Brian’s most recent award is from this years Los Angeles Independent Film Awards for his performance in, "How To Go Out On A Date In Queens". He is the Creative Director of Edgemar Centre for the Arts in Los Angeles where he directs and teaches scene study, camera auditioning, voice and speech.

MELANIE COOTE  who traveled to the US in 2005 to study with Brian says, “For those who dream of going to the US this class is a MUST , or for those who want to find their emotional truth and learn about skills you never knew you had...an experience not to be missed!"

Actors of varying experience are welcome!

The final term of the year’s classes is about to commence from 9th October. The classes are in four levels from Introductory to MASTER CLASS. These workshops provide actors a clear pathway to improving their acting skills. ANA ALMANZA studied a two year acting course in Switzerland and found she acquired a wide range of diverse skills. But at The Rehearsal Room she had many confusions resolved. “The Rehearsal Room provides a manual. You suddenly realize the essential things you have to do get a character and performance underway. It provides a clear map to guide you towards practical performance goals.” (FOR DETAILS)

MP3 - The Path to Realism
A NEW Rehearsal Room MP3 file is now available. It explores the basic element that makes the Rehearsal Room view of process so successful. “The Path to Realism” or “Too Many Bloody Verbs” explains how Stanislavski teachers make the acting process too complicated to manage efficiently. The Rehearsal Room’s approach simplifies those complications in a very effective way. This is the second ‘podcast’ created by Richard Sarell and it can be downloaded by clicking here. The first podcast deals with auditioning and the value of audition workshops. It has some very useful tips on how to keep a scene actively interesting.
