HOW DO ACTORS PLAY?
Theatre Lovett co-founders Louis Lovett and Muireann Ahern will take
you through the actor’s journey on stage: how to take hold of the
moment you’re in, how to look forward to the moment coming next and, most importantly, how to look back – to the moments of play that
children understand, and that adults can learn from and remember.
In this workshop Louis will introduce you to his own unique style of
performance – one that embraces the mischievous spirit of play.
Louis Lovett is Ireland's most experienced and critically acclaimed
performer for children. He has worked both on stage and screen (he is
Killinaskully’s resident German cheese seller - Dieter Langer!)
This workshop welcomes both children and adults so gather the family for a unique and fun-filled session.
