ActUpNorth Tuesday Leeds Class

...'It's what you don't say.'

 
It's what you don't say.

We had a Casting Director from Manchester as a guest tutor tonight. Wow, what a night, full on and really enlightening. I personally learnt loads and most importantly, it's sometimes what you don't say that counts. Our eyes are drawn quite often to the person in a scene who's not saying anything. Try it on your next improv. Don't do it all the time though. We also learnt to be sheep tonight, something you should NEVER be. sorry for BLEETING on.
 
 

" You have no choice- you've got to breathe"

Second class of the new year begins. We gently eased back from the christmas break and were spared the camera in last week's class, so the inevitable lens was bound to show it's face tonight!

But, in truth, class started in a truly terrifying manner...
 
Peter Hunt- " Right, I want you to stand in front of the class and read aloud, no-one will escape it, you will all have to do it." ( a wry smile crossed his face as he dished out Julie Walters biography around to a very shell shocked group of students).
