Tuesdays, 16 June – 1 Sept · 6.30–9.00pm · Ballinfoile Community Centre
A twelve-week course for actors with some experience — whether you've trained before, performed in the past, or have a few beginner courses behind you and want to go deeper.
You'll be assigned two contrasting scenes — drawn from across the classical and contemporary canon — to rehearse and develop in depth over the twelve weeks, working with scene partners and with detailed direction each session. Lines will need to be learned. You'll also spend a good part of each class watching others rehearse, which is where a lot of the real learning happens: seeing the canon up close, scene after scene, and beginning to recognise what good acting actually looks like across very different kinds of writing.
The course culminates in a live showcase at a Galway venue, performed in front of an audience at the end of the summer. It's a real commitment, and a demanding one — but past students have consistently described it as the most satisfying acting work they've done, and for many it's their first experience of the pleasures (and pressures!) of performing for a live audience.
€360/€340 (concession).
If you are a student/unemployed email sarahotoole@pm.me with student card/proof of unemployment and we’ll send you the discount code.
Booking & Cancellations
Full payment secures your place. Cancellations more than 14 days before the course start date receive a full refund less a €15 administration fee. Between 14 and 7 days: 50% refund. Within 7 days of the start date or once the course has begun: no refund.
By purchasing a place on this course, you agree that these terms apply in place of the standard 14-day statutory cancellation right under the EU Consumer Rights Directive, on the basis that the course begins on a fixed date.
