Acclaimed acting coach Miranda Harcourt will discuss how actors can achieve unselfconsciousness, inner life and responsiveness by balancing their vista, their connection and their internal landscape. Miranda will bring case studies and research about the ways psychology and neuroscience can help us to fully occupy a role and a relationship.

In Conversation with Artistic Directors Matthew Lutton & Courtney Stewart

The Equity Foundation – the professional development arm of Actors Equity – was established in 2002 to oversee Equity’s publications, awards and extensive professional program.

The mission of the Equity Foundation is to enhance the lives of Australian and New Zealand actors by investing in programs which help them in their professional endeavours and the communities in which they live. Our professional program, which connects with performers in Australia and New Zealand through an extensive masterclass and workshop program, is developed in close collaboration with performers.

The Equity Foundation is independent from Actors Equity but offers substantive services to Equity members, free of charge. The Foundation relies solely on the support from grants, corporate sponsorships, bequests and individual contributions to maintain our programs and create new ones. Our mission is to assist, educate and inspire actors.
