The Foundation
The Foundation, serious acting training for adults.
Eight weeks. Twenty hours of direct work. A small, committed cohort. Application based.
Programme Details
What you learn
A complete beginner's foundation in craft.
The Foundation is inspired by the work of Stella Adler. Over eight weeks we build the complete beginner's toolkit, imagination, given circumstances, action, justification, characterisation, and integration.
The first half of the programme builds each of these one at a time. The second half puts them into practice through scene work, with personal feedback throughout.
You leave with a repeatable process. Not a collection of tips. A method you can apply to every role, every scene, every rehearsal, for the rest of your life as an actor.
Who this is for
Graduates of The Discovery, and committed beginners.
The Foundation is for adults who have completed The Discovery, or who are otherwise ready to commit to structured training. It is not a taster. It is a proper cohort programme, and it asks for real commitment over its full length.
How to apply
The application process.
The Foundation is application based, not open booking. This keeps the cohort serious and the group small.
You book a short conversation with Verónica. It is not an audition. It is a chance to make sure this is the right programme for where you are, and for us to plan the cohort with care.
After The Foundation
The Practice.
Graduates of The Foundation can continue in The Practice, an ongoing training group at €150 per month. Full details will follow.
We could see how different actors use different actions to tell the same message. That really stayed with me, finding that sweet spot of really being a great actor in a scene.
