Prep, Monologues and Auditions, January 2019

Last week Steph ran the 4 day course delving into the importance and relevance of mental & physical preparation, we experimented and explored monologues (including taking them out onto the streets, in the freezing cold) and then tested ourselves with two mock auditions with 4 wonderful and generous industry experts: casting director Nicci Topping, longstanding Hollyoaks actor Nicole Barber-Lane, theatre director Kash Arshad and film producer Andy Start. We discovered the importance of T R U S T I N G Y O U R S E L F & that you can't predict or guess what people want from you so the best thing is to be brave, jump and give everything you've got which means being fully prepared too. We laughed, we cried, we froze, we warmed up (eventually!). Thank you fabulous actors for guiding each other and for giving everything you did. See you soon :-) x
