Time: 18.00 - 21.00

Following FANTASTIC FEEDBACK FROM MEMBERS and a casting career spanning 20 years (and counting!) we are delighted to welcome back Francesca Greene - who has cast over 1800 projects.

A cold reading – simple isn’t it? You read what's on the page. In this three hour workshop, Francesca will work with members to show you why it's so much more than that, and how to master this essential skill.

In this workshop we will be looking at what is really expected of an actor at a script based audition.  We will define out terms, learn what the script can reveal, practice techniques for easy reading and learn how to turn a script into a fluid and imaginative audition performance that will help you book that part. 

Francesca Greene trained and worked as an actor before moving behind the scenes to become a casting director.  Francesca casts theatre, film, television and commercials, for projects big and small, and still finds the process exciting. Her experiences as an actor led Francesca to approach casting from a different perspective, one that is sensitive to the needs of the performer as well as the client. 

With such a huge wealth of casting experience Francesca is still enthusiastic about the endless possibilities and opportunities offered by this industry and looks forward to meeting you.
