S-Word Symposium
Hosted by RADA
In Collab. with AWFC

Registration now open.

Tuesday 9th September 2025

  • Stanislavsky & Actor Wellbeing.

    An on-line symposium, hosted by Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in collaboration with the Actor Wellbeing Facilitators Collective.

    Co-convened by Alan Powell, Dr. Mark Seton and Lucy Skilbeck, the symposium will focus on the work of Stanislavsky in relation to actor wellbeing in training and production.

    Stanislavsky wanted to create sustainable and engaging theatre practices that satisfied the creative desires of both actors and audiences. However, Stanislavsky himself acknowledged occasions when his actors experienced distress in their performance processes. Subsequently, misinterpretations, misunderstandings and/or the over emphasis of particular techniques have led to questionable approaches that may jeopardize actors’ mental health.

    Profit from ticket sales will be donated to RADA to support training, equipment, and facilities.

Learn Better

DO YOU…

Only feel like you are doing your best work when you’re booking?

Get overwhelmed with nerves when a big job is on the line?

Find yourself constantly wondering what decision makers are thinking of you?

We hear you. But it doesn’t have to be this way…

Flow Better

DO YOU…

Find yourself chasing an old experience where your work felt amazing?

Prepare a lot, but find when you get to go time, your work doesn’t show up for you?

Feel like you are constantly getting distracted by technical demands when you’re in an audition room or on-set?

Heard. It can be much more ease-filled than you think.

Warmup Better

DO YOU…

Immediately start psyching yourself out the moment you reach the waiting room?

Get confused why you don’t feel at your best walking into the room?

Battle anxiety and nerves to the point that doing your best work feels impossible?

Understood. But you are not doomed to repeat it.

Prep Better

DO YOU…

Worry about how to make your audition “stand out”?

Feel like script analysis is something you need to get through before getting to the work you really enjoy?

Find yourself feeling like something is always missing from your work that coaches, casting directors, and teachers are pointing out to you that you wonder why you didn’t see sooner?

Makes sense. But…what got you here won’t get you there.

Memorize Better

DO YOU…

Hate memorizing Lines?

Worry that the words won’t be there for you when the scene begins?

Spend so much time reviewing your script, over and over again to the point where you know them but feel no creative juice?

We get it! It’s so common. But let’s not be common about this.

Recover Better

DO YOU…

Walk out of the room and immediately start scanning for what went wrong?

Replay the experience over and over again trying to make sense of how it went?

Dread the phone calls or lack thereof while trying to get back into the flow of life?

Better. It’s so possible. And this is what unlocks all of your tomorrows.
