Actioning is an approach that brings clarity to every moment and thought in the text, energising rehearsals and bringing performances to life

Actioning is a proven technique that enables you to discover and unlock energy, range, variety and clarity of body and voice by:

★ Interrogating the text and making initial action verb choices

★ Playing your chosen actions - both verbally and physically

★ Maintaining an imaginative and emotional connection with each moment

★ Signposting each thought to your scene partner
