One Day Acting Masterclass: Shakespeare Duologues with Kirsty Bushell

A one day acting workshop at The Still Room. Scene work with actor Kirsty Bushell. Part of our Masterclass series. This Masterclass is ideal for actors with some training or experience looking to deepen their scene work opposite another actor. Duologue work is where embodiment gets tested against another person, in real time, how status, intention and impulse move through the body as much as the line. It's the third of three Shakespeare Masterclasses with Kirsty Bushell this Autumn season, building on Working with Shakespeare's Language and Monologues. Our Sawtooth Winter 2027 Shakespeare Residency will be directed by Kirsty Bushell, and this Masterclass is an ideal development pathway for those interested in auditioning in the New Year. Kirsty trained to lead Shakespeare workshops at the National Theatre, where her passion for teaching began, and has taught at LAMDA for over a decade. Her Shakespeare credits as an actor include Regan in King Lear opposite Ian McKellen (Chichester Festival Theatre & West End), Juliet in Romeo and Juliet (Shakespeare's Globe), and roles in Richard III, Twelfth Night, The Tempest, The Comedy of Errors and The White Devil (Royal Shakespeare Company), as well as The Two Gentlemen of Verona (National Theatre). Television includes Tom Jones, Murder in Provence, Motherland, This Way Up, Silk (BBC), Injustice (ITV), and the Netflix series Run Away. She is currently appearing in Paranormal Activity at the Ambassadors Theatre in the West End.
