Gaiety School of Acting

Courses

One Year (Adult)

APPLICATION DEADLINE: September 23rd 2011!

Our One Year Part Time courses represent our part time school at its most advanced level.

These courses are for the adult student who is committed to the pursuit of excellence in the field of acting. All of our One Year Part Time courses consist of 2 classes per week over 3 ten-week terms.

The courses are taught by experienced drama tutors and accomplished performers, who complement your work with a number of classes given by tutors specialized in the fields of voice, mime, stage combat etc.

All three courses operate as independent one-year programmes, however, they represent consecutive levels of training.

An audition/interview process is conducted with all applicants for all three courses. For recommendatons on good books to help with your audition click here.

Courses


Performance Theatre Company

The Performance Theatre Company seeks to provide a practical educational experience in the preparation and delivery of three theatre pieces. Each piece will be showcased to a public audience at the end of each term.

 

 

The Performance Theatre Company is designed to produce performers who are articulate and flexible and who will display a confidence in their physical and vocal communication. Students will also receive training in theatre company formation and play their part behind the scenes in the production of each theatre piece.

 

 

The training will be varied throughout the year and will correspond to the specific needs of each performance. The company will have a director, a voice coach and a movement director.

 

 

ENTRY REQUIREMENTS

 

 

Only those who have completed the Advanced Performance course may apply. Everyone who applies will be called for audition and interview. A reference will be required from the students’ Advanced Performance tutor. Attendance records at Advanced Performance Course will be taken into account. Selected students may be asked to attend a workshop as part of the selection procedure.
