+ WORKSHOP FORMAT

Focusing on FOOL FOR LOVE by Sam Shepard, this 2 day workshop will be an opportunity to explore and experience a condensed version of Jeremy's approach to rehearsals and process – including script analysis, creating character, and how to vividly bring both to life. It’ll be a chance to jump into a specific scene with detail and guidance.

Having looked at your Spotlight CV beforehand, Jeremy will put you into groups. During the 2 days, there will be time to explore the play together as a company, before moving on to work on and rehearse your own individual scenes in your groups, perform them, receive feedback and direction. All within a focused, creative and supportive environment.
