We all had a fantastic weekend with Jonathon. He taught us so much about acting and about appreciating Shakespeare. We learnt about the rhythm of the language and the power behind the words and related this to building a believable character. We also played some great improv games including "Party Host", everyone's favourite! We are looking forward to Jonathon's next visit! |
