The International Actors' Fellowship
2009 Fellowship
Monday 10 August to Monday 7 September
The International Actors' Fellowship is an intense four week programme which aims to introduce this unique theatre space to actors from around the world. 'A stage for the world' is how Sam Wanamaker, the organisation's founder, described the Globe - and there is nothing that brings this to fruition better than The International Fellowship.
Over the four week programme the participants will be under the tutelage of seasoned Globe professionals who will explore technique, voice, movement and verse in response to the special challenges of this playing space. The fellows will be given as much access to the stage as the Theatre Season will allow and there will be opportunity for group and individual tuition onstage. The programme culminates with a masterclass on Monday 7 September where the fellows perform to an audience on the Globe stage.
The Fellowship is designed for up to ten professional theatre artists, preferably with previous experience of classical performance. All participants should be keen to work as part of an international company and relish the opportunity to explore the lessons to be learned from the architecture and their tutors. Past participants have not only enjoyed the technical apprenticeship but the chance to live, work and play in London with peers from all across the world.
Basic accommodation and facilities will be provided within walking distance of the Globe.
‘It was a great honour for me to participate in the International Acting Fellowship and has been a highlight of my career... I made breakthroughs with voice and text work and regained my deep love for live performance. I have been changed by this experience’
