An Actor’s Guide to Corporate Role Play
The Best Side-Job for Actors
Description
For too long the world of corporate role play has felt like a closed shop that only a few privileged actors have had access to. Now, this book provides any actor with what they need to start and build a side-career in corporate role play, utilising all of the skills they already have in their portfolio.
Detailing what corporate role play is, how to do it, how to get the work and how to get re-employed, this book offers up a clear roadmap, enabling actors to deliver top-quality role plays and evidence-based developmental feedback time and time again.
Using the author's masterclasses as a foundation, the book includes a range of role play briefs an actor may encounter, each accompanied by top tips on how to execute them successfully.
