Teaching Acting
I have been teaching drama and acting since 2005. Specifically I have organised and taught classes for adults who wish to acquaint themselves with the dramatic arts. I have collaborated with psychotherapists and have taught psychodramatic workshops and seminars. I have worked as an acting coach for people who wanted to learn acting, young people who were auditioning for drama schools and professionals who needed coaching for auditions or presentations (singers, musical actors etc.) In September 2021, June 2023 and June 2023, I worked as an executive producer for the workshops of the International Network for Ancient Greek Drama, hosted by Thessaliko Theatro and attendd by lecturers and students of Royal Holloway University of London (2022, 2023). I led an exploratory workshop titled Stanislavski's System in Ancient Greek Drama. I have been teaching Stanislavskian Acting Tools at the Athenean Drama School, since October 2021. I am currently leading classes on Acting in two Schools in Athens.
