THE STAGE ANIMAL

Refining stage craft for actors

3 hours --- 1 x month --- in person 

We use a wide range of techniques to help each artist discover and unleash their individual, unadulterated stage expression.

Sessions explore movement, voice, Meisner, Strasberg, animal work, improvisation, text work, and more—each exercise tailored to the artists in the room and the material they’re developing. Through this hands-on, immersive approach, participants learn to embody their characters fully, break through creative blocks, and connect more deeply to themselves as humans. Step into the wild side of performance, embrace your instincts, and become a true animal of the stage!

ACCENT GYM

Developing this key skill

2 hours --- 2 x month --- online

Led by our professional accent coach Abby, the sessions focus on one accent, chosen each month by the members from our community. Learn the psychology and physiological set point for the accent, then put it to work as you practice on scripts for stage and screen.

ON SCREEN MAGIC

Acting & directing for screen

5 hours --- 1 x month --- in person 

We film new writing scenes developed in the labs while exploring the collaborative relationship between actors, directors, producers and camera operators. 

All raw footage is released after the lab and an edited, graded version becomes available soon after. Work on a scene from your pilot script, develop your material, play a character you have always wanted to play. Member Olly Ginelli used this la to develop his short The Long Spring, which was featured in The Hollywood Reporter

WRITERS WORKSHOP

Developing discipline and skill

3 hours --- 1 x month --- in person

A collaborative space for writers to sharpen their craft and bring stories to life. Through focused work on structure, character, and narrative, writers develop scripts from early idea to production-ready draft. The lab emphasizes hands-on growth, with live read-throughs, constructive feedback, and guided development that bridges the gap between the page and the stage or screen. Whether refining a screenplay or building a play for production, writers leave with stronger work, clearer vision, and momentum toward production.

SHAKESPEARE SESSIONS

developing classical acting craft

2 hours --- 1 x month --- in person

For actors ready to deepen their classical craft. Together we break down structure, language, and rhythm—building the technique that makes Shakespeare playable, not precious. By mastering the bones of the text, actors are freed to bring their own voice, instincts, and imagination fully into the work. This lab builds towards "The Shakespeare Sessions" theatre production.

MEISNER METHOD

developing presence and risk-taking

2 hours --- 1 x month --- in person

For actors who want to work from instinct. For Directors and Writers who want to develop their craft. Through focused repetition and active text work, we strip away pre-planning and habits, training you to listen deeply and respond truthfully in the moment. The result: a grounded, impulsive, fully alive actor—present, responsive, and fearless in the work. Take it into your life as a human for even greater results.
