NIDA Workshop

After the success of last years workshop the students of the Directing course at the National Institute of Dramatic Art (NIDA) will be returning to run an intensive week-long workshop.

The Directors were very complimentary about last years group’s work-ethic and talent and similarly the actors found the friendliness, insight and encouragement of the directors extremely stimulating.
