Monologue Workshop (4 Weeks)

In this focused four week workshop, students will work closely with instructor feedback to select, shape, and polish a monologue suitable for theatre auditions.
We explore text analysis, character development, emotional clarity, physical presence, and confident delivery.
By the end of the course, each participant will leave with a performance ready monologue they can confidently bring into theatre auditions.
Prerequisite: no experience necessary, however some acting or drama experience can be an asset but don’t let that scare you.

Regarding Class Times and Locations

To ensure the best possible experience for each group, classes are scheduled once minimum enrollment is reached. Class size and location are thoughtfully chosen based on the number of participants to create a comfortable and productive learning environment.

If you’re interested in a specific class, please complete the interest form and let me know which evenings you are unavailable rather than preferred. Once a group is formed, you’ll be contacted with confirmed dates, location details, and next steps for registration.

Classes are typically held in the east end of Toronto, near subway access and convenient parking.

Refund Policy

Students may withdraw up to 48 hours after the second class and receive a refund minus the cost of classes attended. After the second class, tuition is non-refundable.

Student Safety

For added peace of mind, Sean Browning holds an up-to-date Police Reference Check (PRC) and Vulnerable Sector Check (VSC) through the Ontario Provincial Police. Creating a safe, respectful, and trustworthy environment for students of all ages is a foundational priority at The Safe Stage.
