“Scott’s uncanny ability to help you make subtle adjustments in your work is extraordinary. He helped me elevate my work and reconnect with my love of acting. I’d work with him again in a heartbeat.” - Alyson Standen (Total Control, Home & Away, Farscape)

Scott Williams returns with his exciting series of intensive workshops, rooted in his training with Sanford Meisner and William Ball, to transform everything you thought you knew about acting technique.

You will explore a specific set of exercises developed by Sanford Meisner and distilled by Scott Williams, all designed to connect you to your emotional truth and ‘live in the moment’.

If you’re looking for a deeply joyful and authentic process that allows you to become fully present in your body and responsive to your partner then this is the workshop for you.

Discover more truth, excitement and power in your acting.

Discover what it means to ACT ON IMPULSE.

These workshops will be taught by internationally renowned teacher, director, and Artistic Director Scott Williams, who studied with Sanford Meisner at the Neighbourhood Playhouse and has over 40 years of experience teaching this work globally.
