Stanislavski Masterclass Series
An Introduction to Our Creative Philosophy
This dynamic series of masterclasses offers a practical and inspiring introduction to our creative approach, rooted in the Stanislavski method. Drawing on Chris New’s training at RADA and his experience as a highly regarded actor, the course provides participants with a foundation in modern acting technique, narrative insight, and an experiential process that supports personal and artistic growth.
Blending active participation with guided observation, each session combines practical exercises, group discussion, and clear explanation. Whether you're new to being creative or looking to reconnect with your craft, this course invites you to explore the transformative power of ensemble learning in a supportive, thought-provoking environment.
