Many of us, consciously and unconsciously, believe in the value of Hard Work. Unless what we produce involves struggle, or maybe even suffering, then it can’t be as valuable or worthwhile. We’ll use Michael Chekhov’s approach to explore the fundamental principle of EASE: ways to find it and to build a relationship with it. Please have a character in mind, even if only vaguely.

These workshops are for actors, directors, designers, writers and artists. They will be held on Zoom - participants will receive a Zoom invitation for the workshop several days prior to it.

Patrick Bailey is an actor, based in London and Minneapolis. He is a core member of The Chekhov Collective UK. www.chekhovcollectiveuk.co.uk
