Focus group invite

Dear Actors,

Do you feel a surge of dread when you see the stage direction 'he/she breaks down into tears'?
Have you ever struggled to connect emotionally with a piece or been in a position when you feel connected, but the tears just won't come?

These are things I think most actors have been effected by at some point in their careers, I certainly have. Which is why for my dissertation I'm launching an inquiry into what professional actors say about accessing extreme emotion stage Vs screen.

I'm interested in your experiences in accessing extreme emotion, techniques you use and how you feel (if at all) environment effects your performance across the genres.

I'm hoping to have at least 10 actors in total from all different walks of life. I think it will be a really informative couple of hours and a great way to share practice.

The focus group will be held on Saturday 1st of March 2:30pm-4:30pm at RADA 18-22 Chenies Street, WC1E 7PA.

If you are free and interested in attending please reply to this email and I'll send you more details.

I really look forward to hearing from you!
