+ WORKSHOP FORMAT

Following an introduction, participants will film their tape with Simon Higgins under audition conditions (with the whole group present). We have superb equipment for the best learning experience. Simon will give each participant notes allowing them the chance to do a second take. This will be followed by a short tea break and an informal Q&A.

Simon Higgins will send out a selection of scenes before the workshop. Please choose a scene that suits you best regardless of gender, age and ethnicity. Simon would like participants to be as familiar with text as possible.

Your scenes will be recorded with broadcast quality equipment. Upon request, you have the option to receive your footage after the session for no extra cost!

SIMON'S BIO

Simon works with Dan Hubbard and Olivia Scott-Webb.

Credits include, The Pope's Exorcist, directed by Julius Avery & starring Russell Crowe; announced but yet to be released feature films, The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare, directed by Guy Ritchie; Verona, a new original musical based on Romeo & Juliet directed by Timothy Scott Bogart; Canary Black, directed by Pierre Morel, the director of 'Taken' & starring Kate Beckinsale; Midas Man, a biopic of Brian Epstein, the man who discovered The Beatles, directed by Joe Stephenson; Arcadian, directed by Benjamin Brewer & starring Nicolas Cage & Magpie, directed by Sam Yates & starring Daisy Ridley - all due for release in 2024.

He plugged away as an actor for 10 years, before deciding to sidestep into the world of casting, and is now lucky enough to have seen things from both perspectives and thoroughly enjoys offering as many nuggets of new found wisdom as he can!
