Time: 14.00 - 17.00

Many actors look at the possibility of corporate role-play work as a means of employment between acting jobs. But it is not always obvious how to get into it. This workshop will answer all your questions about the role-play business, what makes a good corporate role-player, the pros and cons of the work and the processes involved, principles of giving people feedback following a role-play exercise, and how to create a good role-play CV. You will also hear first hand what a role-play company looks for in its actors.

In the second part of the workshop you will have an opportunity to practise real corporate role-plays with your peers and get some feedback.
