About this course
The course introduces acting through practical exercises that move from drama games into improvisation, character exploration and scene work. Participants will work in both whole-group and paired activities, exploring characters in different scenarios and developing short scenes. The teaching focuses on experiencing the acting process through structured exercises rather than written or lecture-based study.
