Intermediate Acting Program: The art of being in the moment with Luke Elliot

As actors, we strive to be ‘in the moment’.

And in this acting program, that's exactly what you'll do.

It’s that point in a scene when you are so engrossed in your objective. The other character. Your circumstances... When you are so present, that everything else just disappears. It is the actors sacred space, and it is where magic happens.

In Luke Elliot's class you will be guided through specific exercises designed to develop that sense of being in the moment by working relationally. This intermediate acting program is one that will truly challenge any actor.

Luke has been teaching acting and theatre for over 25 years, with extensive experience as an actor, on both the stage and the television. Luke has taught at the VCA, AFTRS, Victoria University and Courthouse Arts before coming to run the intermediate program on a Wednesday night at Mooregrace. For over twenty five years, Luke has worked with some of Australia’s finest actors including Bill Hunter, Jackie Weaver, David Wenham, Guy Pierce, Frank Gallagher, John Stanton, Pamela Rabe and many, many more. Luke has worked on many Australian feature films, short films and large and stages of all sizes across Australia, and the world.

The work Luke does with his students' centres around relationship and connection as a way of understanding wants, needs, actions and the role of an actor. It is experiential based learning and has a focus on game play and interaction, being in the moment and impulse.
