The Acting Programme is an introduction to a variety of acting and performing techniques led by Hampstead Theatre's Birkbeck Resident Assistant Director Sam Edmunds. Sam will also be joined by other theatre practitioners to explore movement, voice and text. The programme will culminate in a small, public performance. 

This course is open to anyone, whether they have participated in a similar programmes or not. All are welcome. 

Community Creates grew out of the success of the North Camden Zone resident-led programme, Hilgrove Creates. Inspired by Hilgrove Creates, Hampstead Theatre and North Camden Zone each led a successful ten-week pilot programme for the residents of the Chalcots and Hilgrove Estates, with the theatre focusing on playwriting and North Camden Zone offering painting.

Through, Community Creates, you’ll be able to meet new people and have fun in a welcoming and relaxed space. There will also be the opportunity to contribute to devising the programme to ensure there’s something for everyone, whether it’s contributing scenes for the final play or performing a monologue in the end of season showcase.
