About this event

This is a place for Actors to workout


For actors who want to be on their feet, working their craft, sharpening their skills, and performing regularly in-between gigs, auditions and classes


Each week actors bring in what they like to work on. We have warmups, improv and a rotating Technique each week from Meisner to Method, and then individual scenes and monologues.


Each week we do:

Warmups 15-20min

Improv 30-45min

Technique 15-30min

Monologues & Scenes with or without audience feedback 1-2hrs


Feel free to bring in something rehearsed or cold or just sit and watch - monologues, scenes, stand up, poetry, Shakespeare, original scripts, etc all welcomed. Bring something in once or several times - whatever you need as an actor.


This is a place to have fun, get creative, try out new things, strengthen your stage presence, imagination and confidence as an actor and develop and deepen your work to the next level.


If you're a writer and want to hear your script read aloud by actors feel free to call in and have your script read.

    If you're just starting out in acting feel free to come along. We start off each workshop slow and easy and build from there. All the exercises are guided, you'll learn a lot without feeling intimidated. Feel free to bring in a performance or pick up something in class to try out on the spot or just sit and watch. All feedback is optional and adjusted to each personal's level. Beginner to Professional will feel welcomed and honed at their own level.

Welcome to The Disciplined Actor!

The overall purpose of this group is to support Actors along their journey in achieving their creative and professional goals.

  • It was created as a home base for actors to come back to in between gigs to refresh, recharge and get inspired towards their next set of goals whether that be creative or business wise.

It’s for actors who want to stay connected to their community on a regular basis, brainstorm ideas, work out goals, challenges or workshop material.

We have had and will have an array of workshops and seminars touching upon both the creative and business sides of the industry- ie. audition workshops, how to get and keep an agent, quarterly goal reviews, elevator pitches and anything else we can think up.

The Disciplined Actor was founded originally in NYC and it grew into a very special place for actors, writers and film makers. So I’m very excited to be relaunching it here in Ireland and to start The Actor’s Dojo ... where actors can workout their creative chops, strengthen their stage presence, improv, technique and performance muscles weekly.

This is a place to get on your feet and work weekly so you’re inspired and ready when that next big audition comes your way.
