COVID-19: Updates and Activities

Have you always wanted to try acting? GNAG's performing arts courses are a fantastic way to build confidence, have fun and meet new people. Who knows where it might lead!
The most common fear of taking an acting class is the fear of getting up in front of a class, on your own, and performing a monologue. You won't be doing that. You will however, be working with groups having fun, working together and discovering how actors create characters, work with a script and take direction. You won't be memorizing anything (unless you want to!) but you will be exercising your brain and the creative side of you. What are you waiting for?

An introduction to Acting with Chris Ralph
Starts March 23

An Introduction to Acting with Kate Egan

These courses are ideal for those with no acting experience, this course provides participants the opportunity to learn and develop acting skills in a practical, fun and supportive enviroment. Whether you are interested in becoming an actor or simply wish to try something new, fun and creative, you will find this course rewarding and exciting.
