Synopsis

TWO-DAY MASTERCLASS: Acclaimed Los Angeles acting coach, Lisa Robertson, brings her unique professional-level training to Australia. Using a combination of character exercises (that all actors present will participate in) and effective script-analysis, through advanced-level scene-study, Lisa will demonstrate her approach to coaching transformative and award-winning performances in film and television. All Lisa’s work applies to major auditions and self-tapes as much as it does to preparing major roles. An Australian herself and having coached in LA for eighteen years, Lisa holds a valuable point of view for the actor looking to further breakthrough in their professional training - and to increase their understanding of the US industry. Please note: This is a two day masterclass and up to 16 actors will work with Lisa over the two days on pre-selected scenes. The actors selected to work directly with Lisa will need to commit to attending the two days. Equity “auditors” will be in the room observing and also taking part in character exercises and the Q and A.
