Get Exploring on Sunday

Our ACT Workshops take place on Sundays: 15 January - 25 March 2023

(no classes on 29 January or 19 February)


...with more to come after Easter!

16:00 - 19:00, Grand Hospice

Grand Hospice is on Rue du Grand Hospice 7. It is a large complex and the exact location of our workshops will be communicated with the participants.

Each week something new

Let our five theatre professionals guide you through the topics they know best. Each week is a stand alone session, meaning if you have to miss one, there is no need to catch up!


For this series, we have included a three-session workshop. If you sign up to this one, then you will need to sign up to all three.

Do them all, or just do one

This is a Workshop with flexible attendance. You can choose to sign up to all of them, three of them, or pick-and-choose the individual masterclasses you like the look of.
