Unleash your acting with director and acting coach Harry Haynes in this 6-week scene study course. Through this work, you, the actor, will be in a constant state of collaboration with the director, your scene partner and the playwright.
Harry will guide you through his process, inspired by Stankislavsky’s Active Analysis and Yat Malmgrens Movement Psychology. This work is a must for anyone looking to increase their castability, strengthen their professional rehearsal toolkit and deepen the connection between their inner lives and outer actions.
“In my 10 years at the Drama Centre as the principal teacher of Character Analysis, Harry stands out as one of very few actors to have grasped this work to such a level. His enthusiasm for the work and his natural inclination to share his knowledge and experience make for a natural teacher.”
– Tim Robins former head of character analysis Drama Centre London and NIDA
