Gareth is the Artistic Director of Salisbury Playhouse. This workshop will take the shape of an audition masterclass. Actors will look at audition technique, industry secrets and must-dos!

Participants will be working on a script that Gareth has cast (and directed) and will get feedback and direction. Gareth will look through CVs beforehand and the script will be sent out a day before the workshop for actors to read and prepare. 

The workshop will finish with a Q&A to round off the evening.
