‘The CORE’ Certificate III Complete Foundation Course Starts on Valentine’s Day – Enrolling Now Do you dream of being an actor? The Actors College of Theatre and Television (ACTT) will be holding selection workshops for ‘The CORE’ Certificate III in Theatre and Screen Performance on 22 January and 1 February. The Part-Time course starts on Valentine’s day, 14 Feb 2011 and runs 2 evenings each week as well as one Saturday class each month. About The CORE The CORE is Ausralia’s most comprehensive Certificate III in Theatre and Stage Performance (formerly the Certificate III in Stage and Screen Acting). This all-round foundation course in acting has launched the careers of some of Australia’s most well-known actors, including Socratis Otto (Wolverine, The Matrix Reloaded), George Houvardas (‘Garbo’ in Packed To The Rafters) and Luke Joslin (2010 Greenroom Award Winner for ‘Trekkie Monster’ in Avenue Q). “ACTT was the perfect place for me to express myself freely... friendly and professional, nurturing as well as challenging.” Luke Joslin Unlike a series of short courses, the CORE develops integrated skills across a broad range of performance and technical areas for an all-round experience. Students will be taught by a team of Australia’s most dedicated and qualified industry professionals as you enjoy learning about stage acting, screen acting (TV & film), voice and movement techniques along with a small amount of ensemble singing and dance (to help release creativity) and also learn about technology and the business of acting. As people progress through the modules they will be supported by a course supervisor as they learn new and exciting performance skills and build confidence. This culminates in staging and performing the ‘Small Theatre Company Production’ to a live theatre audience.
