Mark your diaries for November
We are delighted that we will be bringing you another brand new production this autumn. For our next play, we have partnered again with Bridie and Louise at Full Circle, who will host us for this production in their beautiful space on Chaussée de Vleurgat in Ixelles. Full Circle is a venue and community for connecting ideas with the power to act, and as such, we think it is the perfect location for this next production.
Some of you may remember that Full Circle also hosted our first production, Vincent River, back in autumn 2021, and we are delighted to return for this production (without as many face masks this time, we hope!).
Our production will run 8 November – 25 November 2023. Mark it in your calendars now. We will release more details very soon.
We will also be looking for volunteers to help us spread the word. If you’re interested in helping out, get in contact with us on info@thebridge.brussels and we will provide more information.
Get ACTive This Autumn
The autumn season of our workshops is fast approaching. This term, alongside our existing selection, we are launching three new Workshops, based on the feedback we have received. Let’s take a look at these new Workshops in closer detail.
Our SCENES Workshop is for people with some performing experience who would like to gain confidence in preparing a character. In this eight-week course you will work with your course mates and Michelle to explore how to create well-rounded characters. This is a workshop with lots of scene work and interactive exercises, under the supportive guidance of a fabulous professional actor.
Our SPEECHES Workshop is a creative and fun course that will allow you to work on your public speaking skills. In just five weeks, Jonathon will get you exploring the whole range of your vocal abilities so that you are able to tackle any speaking environment. Our small group will allow time for personalised feedback from Jonathon, while also enabling you to learn from your course mates and their experiences.
Our CONNECT Workshop brings all the fun of acting and drama and the sense of community that develops through it without the pressure of a final performance. Be free to explore your creative side in a safe space with like-minded participants, led by the steady hand of Matilda.
And if these don’t sound quite the right fit for you, we still have our Musical Theatre and SING Workshops, as well as some limited spaces in our popular ACT Workshops.
Retrospective: Our Summer School
We spent another intense week in August this year with just over 30 budding young performers at our annual Summer School. Over the five days, we built a whole musical and then gave a wonderful performance on the final day, based on the Disney movie, High School Musical.
Thanks to Abbie, Bia, Heidi, Eric and Jonathon for leading such a fun week and congratulations to all involved for a stunning final performance. Wildcats forever!
