Overview

Your future

Throughout the course, you will receive individual feedback, guidance and support from your acting tutors as well as skills tutors.

The advanced acting training offered on this course draws on contemporary industry practices and the legacy of Stanislavski, as well as the unique methodologies and ethos of East 15 itself, which grew out of the techniques, beliefs and practice of one of the UK's most historically significant theatre companies of the 20th century: Joan Littlewood's Theatre Workshop.
