JOT GYM

WHAT IS THE JOT GYM?

​

The Jot Gym, run by Jot Theatre, is open to any actor looking for a supportive and judgement free place to flex their acting muscles between jobs. 

This is a low pressure, friendly workshop to unlock and reawaken the actor's body.

​

2 hour workshop broken up by: 

​

1st hour- Voice and Movement.

This is curated to build physical and vocal stamina, freedom, and true ensemble generosity. As a highly physical company, we use techniques we trust and practise ourselves, helping actors to get out of their heads and into their bodies.

​

2nd hour- Text Work.

We send a scene (usually from a modern play) a few days before the workshop. We believe there's real value in jumping into unfamilar material, just like you often have to do for those last-minute auditions. This is a low pressure environment, so no need to be off book.

​

Come ready to move, take risks, and most importantly... play!
