DLI Workshop: The Anatomy of Acting

 (image: google)

Yesterday, 16th November, six Dóchas members took part in an exciting workshop organized by the Drama League of Ireland http://www.dli.ie

The workshop was held in Tralee by the well known and very experienced Actor/ Director/ Acting Teacher (Gaiety School of Acting) DAVID SCOTT.

Members from six other local Drama Groups also attended, in total 21. Minister Jimmy Deenihan kindly opened the day, with sincere wishes for the continued success and emphasising the importance of Amateur Drama in Ireland. He praised the hard work of volunteers such as Joanne Keane and Anne Makitarian for DLI, who were both present on the day, giving information and answering questions.

The workshop was as usual of very high standard, the information and tips given by David will prove invaluable in our next production and beyond. Thank you!
