... What’s Different at The Rehearsal Room?
An actor who has worked with lots of different teachers said, “They all talk about the importance of ‘story’ BUT none of them tell you HOW to deliver it.” At The Rehearsal Room actors learn how to identify and deliver THE STORY. It’s a primary goal for an actor. |

“Rhyme and Reason” – a feature film
 |
A major effort is being made to complete the script in preparation to shoot the remaining portion of The Rehearsal Room feature film “Rhyme and Reason”. The enormously positive responses to the quality of the performances and the engaging nature of the story have generated a determined commitment to finish this project. Every day brings new and exciting prospects. So, far there have been 28 speaking parts for Rehearsal Room actors with many more to come. The scenes in which Jakov (ANTE KRESO) and Pip (KARLA HILLAM) learn to drive earthmoving equipment are currently being written. These will be shot with the assistance of TDT Driver Training who is supplying an excavator, bobcat and backhoe plus technical supervision. There’s much fun and many great experiences ahead. |
An excellent 40 minutes of content is already ‘in the can’. Hopes for the final completion of this remarkable project are high.
An Opportunity for MUSICIANS
It is probable that “Rhyme and Reason” will have to be completed on a tiny budget. Thus far an enormous amount has been achieved at very little cost. Currently Mushroom Records are allowing the use of Angie Hart’s songs to pitch the project but if we are able to afford the use of some of her tracks there will remain a significant amount of incidental music needed for the film.
IF YOU ARE or know a MUSICIAN who might be interested in creating the musical sound track for this story then email The Rehearsal Room with contact details and some examples of appropriate work. A more specific brief is being prepared.
This is an early step towards getting organised for the post-production process.
At this stage it is unlikely that there will be any significant financial remuneration for involvement in this project. However, it is shaping up to be a very well-told story and a worthwhile filmic event.
Exciting times ahead.

Since then he has played the lead in ‘Jersey Boys’ 300 times.

Audition Workshops
The standard of acting in the Audition Workshops is reflecting the high skill level achieved by Rehearsal Room actors. Melanie Mackintosh said that this was the highest standard she had seen and requested copies of the auditions for her files. Lou Mitchell similarly commented on the impressive standard. Agents recommend that actors should make sure they are seen at a workshop where the standard is high. Many of the Audition Workshops around town have many performers with low level capabilities. At The Rehearsal Room the focus is always on practical ways to build skill.
NEXT AUDITION WORKSHOP is with Thea McLeod (Fremantle International – Neighbours) and Angela Heesom (South Australian Film Corporation). PREPARATION SESSIONS are available with this round. You can choose to spend three Saturday mornings preparing at The Rehearsal Room and then see the casting directors OR just prepare yourself.
Preparation sessions commence on 23rd April. ENROL NOW.
Casting Directors sessions 14th May (Thea McLeod - Neighbours)
21st May (Angela Heesom - South Australian Film Corp)

COMPETITION SUCCESS
BRIAN KLYS decided to enter ‘The Road to Hollywood’ competition run by MIX101.1 Brian started acting in The Rehearsal Room Introductory Workshop in April 2009. His stated aim was to just, “Give acting a go!” Two years later he entered a competition with the aim of testing his skills. This time his aim was to get into the top ten. Brian made it to the top ten and then, early in March, heard he was selected in the top group of THREE. Lou Michell (Maura Faye Casting) was to supervise the final assessment to sort out the winner. Brian spent a fabulous week participating in various acting challenges to decide who the winner would be. He had a ball. Entering the competition gave him a lot of experience and some very good exposure. How did he do so well?? He explained it this way, “I set simple goals. I decided on a simple clear reason for the conversation and then I worked on listening and staying on that path.” Congratulations, Brian. It was good work. You can see his original audition here |

Rhyme and Reason The process of creating a budget for the second half of this telemovie project is underway. Once the budget is organized it will be possible to approach funding bodies , broadcasters and distributors to explore the possibility of completing the production. A preview of material shot so far is available on The Rehearsal Room Facebook page ANTE KRESO has gained a huge amount of experience through playing the lead in ‘Rhyme and Reason’ and is now consistently receiving high praise from casting directors. “He’s got something special,” they are saying. |
The Rehearsal Room Facebook Page
There is now a Facebook page where you can check the latest notes and comments. Facebook provides an easier way to spontaneously make notes about the acting process. It is simpler and quicker than loading material onto the website. The website will still continue to have an important role and major articles will continue to be published and archived on www.rehearsalroom.com but in the meantime check out Rehearsal Room Facebook - click here
| Aaron McCarthy who attended the The Rehearsal Room TV Presenters and Voice Over Workshops in 2009 has a new agent and a new presenting show reel that looks great. Congratulations, Aaron. You can view his reel here. |  |
Animation Success
Patrick Sarell’s ‘tortoise and the hare’ animated story based around a road rage incident on the Nullarbor plain is now complete, five years after it was conceived. It received funding from both Film Vic and Screen Australia. Now it's achieving success both here and internationally on the festival circuit.
|
‘Nullarbor’ premiered at the Adelaide Festival with a four and a half star rating. |
 |
It will receive its international premier at the Stuttgart Animation Festival were it is scheduled as the final film to be screened on the opening night of the Festival.
‘Nullarbor’, produced by the Lampshade Collective, has also been accepted into the Annecy International Animation Festival and the Rhode Island International Film Festival. There are more to come.
Rehearsal Room techniques that explore the way surprises play out was an important part of the animation production process. The surprises these animated characters experience are excellent and a significant amount of the humour in the story unfolds as a result of the surprises that occur. Congratulations to a hard working production team.
SURPRISES

Wishing you ALL lots of great gigs in 2011.
Over the next 12 months make sure you play, take risks, enjoy, grow and celebrate.
Twelve Months Work – With 4 more scenes shot in the last week before Christmas the MASTER CLASS feature film exercise ‘Rhyme and Reason’ is now ready to be pitched to broadcasters and funding bodies. The aim is to attract funding to complete the project. Forty minutes of content makes up the reel that has involved 22 speaking parts for Rehearsal Room actors and 40 scenes.
This project has been extremely well supported by actors and benefactors – including the $300,000 truck used as a prop just before Christmas from TDT Driver Training (see opposite), Croydon Library (last Easter), a factory, offices, bobcat and a truck last Christmas. Mushroom Records and Angie Hart have also given permission to use the music from her album ‘Eat My Shadow’ (to pitch the project) and John Marsden has given permission for references to ‘Tomorrow When the War Began’. |
|
 |
A number of actors have already included ‘Rhyme and Reason’ scenes in their show reels. Fingers crossed for some good news in the New Year. (KARLA HILLAM and JOHN HIGGINSON in the pre-Christmas shoot.) HERE’S HOPING FOR LOTS OF GOOD NEWS FOR YOU, TOO.
Acting Summer Intensive commences on 10th January 2011 for 5 days. There are still some places available. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn the exciting practicalities of this unique process – it will make a difference. |

ANGIE HART MAGIC
GREAT MELODIES FOR MASTER CLASS PROJECT
|
Angie Hart ex-lead singer from the popular band Frente and Mushroom Records have given permission for The Rehearsal Room to use the music from her solo disc “Eat My Shadow” to pitch the MASTER CLASS project ‘Rhyme and Reason’. The charming melodies and strong storytelling content of Angie’s songs support beautifully the ‘Rhyme and Reason’ storyline. Everyone agrees that Angie’s music is perfect for this story.
It’s not such common practice for songs to be used as incidental music in a film but in this case the match is made in heaven. Rhyme and Reason is a feature film concept that started shooting in early January as an exercise for Rehearsal Room MASTER CLASS actors. The aim was to provide an opportunity for actors to gain more ‘on set’ experience. Fifty minutes of content has been shot in that time. |
|
The Rehearsal Room is exploring the possibilities of 'Rhyme and Reason' becoming a fully fledged production. It is for the purpose of pitching the concept to broadcasting organizations that Angie Hart has given permission to have her music used on the production. Any wider use will have to be part of further negotiations. But for the moment, ‘Rhyme and Reason’ can have a classy sound track which supports the nuances of its story. Fingers crossed that this project can develop into something more significant.
But in the meantime, whatever the final outcome, it has given the participating Rehearsal Room actors a huge amount of experience that they would not otherwise have gained at this stage of their careers.
Rhyme and Reason has been written by Jane Miller and Ashley Harris.
A BETTER WAY TO RECORD SCENES
|
Since the demise of the VHS tape and player it has been necessary to record onto a DVD. This method of copying has been very unreliable. Some acting schools get around this by only providing actors with a copy of their work at the end of each term. This method of operating was not chosen by The Rehearsal Room because its very important for actors to be able to assess their work on a weekly basis. The Rehearsal Room has been using re-writable DVD’s but these are particularly unreliable and so often it was a case of using a DVD per night.
But now with the purchase of two new converters actors can record their scenes, as Mp4 files, straight onto a USB stick. The files are transferred in real time to the USB stick and can be instantly played back on a computer. The system which has only recently been installed at The Rehearsal Room is currently being tested. Those actors who have used it are finding it very effective. |
|
USB sticks are smaller and more portable plus they are reusable. They are considerably less complicated than the DVD process we have been using so far and so they are much more effective. From now on Rehearsal Room actors will be able to take their scenes home, after each class, on a USB stick. Hooray!!!
|
NEW RECIPES
|
Cooking up clear and functional recipes for successful acting processes is exactly what The Rehearsal Room is all about. But AMY BORELAND has been cooking up recipes of her own making. For the best part of two terms Amy has been bringing the most delicious cup cakes to Thursday night classes. These are no ordinary cup cakes. Every week there has been a different theme. It started with special Rehearsal Room cup cakes but there have been cakes with a film making focus and lots more.
This Thursday night group of actors has consistently stuck together for three terms. A significant factor in this groups commitment might well have been the enticing quality of Amy’s cup cakes. Very YUMMY!!! |
|
Acting Notes
For many years actors have been browsing The Rehearsal Room website for articles that continue to develop and explore functional approaches to acting process. It’s the clarity and simplicity of these articles that attracts actors’ interest. In the last month two new articles have been published that have generated a lot of positive comment. The first article on how to ‘play boldly’ to garner the attention of casting directors and producers touched on fundamental issues that many actors see as central to their craft. It exposed areas that many actors acknowledged were extremely important ones to address. “This article is now hanging on my bedroom wall :)” wrote actor, GENEVIEVE BROCK.
In addition sixteen year old EMILY COUPE has worked out for herself another way deciding on the real essence of the conversationin any scene. This valuable and intelligent suggestion formed the basis of another useful article that has produced very positive responses from older and more experienced actors. You can read these articles by clicking here.

More Steps Forward
The first term of 2010 is now complete with exciting results.
This term Lou Mitchell (from Maura Faye – Neighbours) was the casting director who attended the last session of the Advanced Workshop.
So many actors were interested in Rehearsal Room technique that a second Introductory Workshop was run on Friday nights. A Friday night session is also on offer for second term commencing on 16th April – currently there area a couple of places available in this class. Enrol NOW
The MASTER CLASS is on Wednesday evenings commencing from 14th April.
For details of workshop –
The next TV Presenters Workshop commences at 2pm on Saturday 24th April.
The Audition Workshop with Jane Norris (Mullinars) and Thea McLeod (Thea McLeod Casting) commences on Saturday 17th April. This will be one of only two workshops this year where you can prepare in a class with Richard Sarell. There will be three preparation sessions focused on building audition skill before seeing the casting directors on 8th and 15th May. Of course you can still book to only see the casting directors.

Jersey Boys Success
|
Glen Quinn has been a member of the Jersey Boys cast since it opened in Melbourne playing the smaller parts of Knuckles, Billy Dixon and Donnie. Glen has also being understudying the lead role of Tommy DeVito. But opportunity has knocked and Glen has now played that lead role about twenty times. He is doing a fantastic job and it’s exciting to see a Rehearsal Room actor carrying the story of a major production on stage at the Princess Theatre. In these performances Glen has been doing a great at job driving the story forward. He is focused on story in a richly complex way in both his acting, movement (dance) and singing. His surprises are fabulous. Well done, Glen. |

Above: Rehearsal Room students filming for the Free Feature Film Workshop, January 2010 |
On Saturday 2nd and Sunday 3rd January the first scenes of the Free Feature Film Workshop were shot. These were two fantastic days of acting fun. ‘Materials Fabrication Pty Ltd’ provided the shoot with a fabulous location and great back up support from the staff. Rod Winning contributed with lighting; Frances McLean-Grant (ABC continuity expert) assisted with continuity and trained Jo Mullins to take on this job; Ex-ABC Director Lindesay Dresdon operated the second camera and Ex-Neigbours Director David Morgan was 1st Assistant Director. Richard Sarell was directing. |
All
these experienced professionals were highly impressed by the
standard of the performances. Entirely made up of Rehearsal Room
actors, the cast excelled. They were efficient, adventurous,
playful, consistent and hard working.
This workshop is designed to give Rehearsal Room MASTER CLASS actors a wider level of experience. It functions like a real film shoot but with a slightly lower level of technical sophistication.
The script has been especially created for the exercise with both Jane Miller and Ashley Harris contributing to the writing. The quality of the story telling was exciting and everyone responded positively to good scripts.
Eight scenes were shot over the two days with very pleasing results. It provided some actors with an experience they have never had before and gave Rehearsal Room acting process a good workout in a genuine working enviroment.
Congratulations to all.
Summer Intensive
Workshops
(Acting Workshop
commences on 11th January)
There are more of the standard Rehearsal Room Workshops underway.
The Summer Intensive is another great opportunity to explore
this remarkably practical and excitingly adventurous approach
to performance.
The final exercise of the Summer Intensive Acting Workshop is to shoot a scene. It is ultimately edited so that actors can have a copy of the finished product.
There are still a couple of places available in that workshop. Click here for more information.
Congratulations
Nick Gunn
The Short and Sweet short play festival ended with the Nicholas
Gunn winning the best actor award.
 Above: Nick Gunn being interviewed about Rehearsal Room process |
Nick appeared in two plays both of which were selected for the gala final night. His winner’s prize gives him 5 months fulltime work touring the country with a season of Shorter and Sweeter plays. This will be the longest period of time Nick has spent working as a professional actor. As such it represents a major step forward in his acting career. Nick has found Rehearsal Room process to be really productive in helping him make clear choices when preparing for a role. He discussed his approach in a recent interview which is now available on The Rehearsal Room YouTube channel. |
A Very Productive
Year
During 2009 The Rehearsal Room continued on its remarkable adventure
exploring and developing the acting process. More and more actors
are finding that this approach to performance is choc-a-bloc
with simple practical tools that enable significant improvements
to occur in acting technique.
During the year Richard Sarell was quoted as saying that he thought the on going growth of "Rehearsal Room process had reached a level of wholeness that was now very satisfying". And yet, still further developments emerged through the year that have further clarified and improved the process. One new and simple addition to the Rehearsal Room formula was a significant factor in Nicholas Gunn’s preparation for the performance that ulitimately delivered a ‘Best Actor’ Award to him.
The element that continues to excite actors about The Rehearsal Room approach is the continuing development of simple, clear and extremely practical methods of preparing for the performance adventure. These techniques are constantly tested for their praciticality and efficiency. It is this atmosphere of exciting exploration that provides an open forum for everyone’s ideas to come to the surface.
The end result is clear improvement in actor’s capabilities and some exciting performances.
Here’s to more exciting developments in 2010.
