Celebrated actor to host free drama workshops!



art2264 @ Morisset PCYC is extremely proud to announce that Andrew McDonell will be hosting two free drama workhops on Friday 18th November. The first workshop, Introduction to acting through theatre games, designed for primary school aged students, will begin at 5pm. And secondary students will get their chance to shine at 6pm with Introduction to acting through mask.

‘We’re really excited to have such a well known actor coming to Morisset!’ enthused art2264's resident artist Margrete Erling. ‘Not only is Andrew an amazingly skilled creative professional, but he’s great at building rapport with young people. I’ve had the privilege of watching him teach a few times: the shy kids get loud, while the loud kids learn how to channel it!’

A NIDA trained actor with over twenty years experience in the performing arts, Andrew McDonell has appeared in television shows such as A Country Practice, Murder Call, Naked (ABC), All Saints, Chasing Time (BBC &National Geographic) and Rescue Special Ops. His stage work includes the Bell Shakespeare Company, including productions of Macbeth and The Tempest, and numerous roles as an actor with Pork Chop Productions: Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead, The Players, WANK and Last Cab to Darwin.

Don’t miss out on your chance to be coached by a pro! Numbers are limited so come early or email art2264 to reserve a place. Email: art2264morisset(at)gmail.com or ring Margrete Erling on 0412324228
