The company intends to provide courses on a range of skillsets essential to directors of film and theatre, centering around the WORKING WITH ACTORS workshops that Stephen teaches internationally, in partnership with Maria Gowland (Argentina). Since completing his studies at the Actors Temple in London five years ago, Stephen has been teaching joint workshops for DIRECTORS and ACTORS, offering them practical tools for creating truthful, in-the-moment performances for film and stage. Stephen’s methods are largely based on the teachings of the legendary American acting teacher, Sanford Meisner, which Stephen studied as an actor under Tom Radcliffe at the Actors Temple.
