Acclaimed acting coach Miranda Harcourt will discuss how actors can craft a journey through their material, how verbatim text can help us achieve naturalism and how our thoughts translate through the lens. As she did in her last livestream, Miranda will bring case studies and research about the ways psychology and neuroscience supports your performance. Last time she discussed how you can achieve unselfconsciousness, inner life and responsiveness by balancing your vista, connection and internal landscape.

Riding the roller coaster, navigating the risks and hazards of the acting life with Dr Julie Crabtree, PHD
With the current heightened uncertainly within the performance industry and the broader global instability, any kind of ‘tick the box’ approach to our wellbeing is just not working as it used to. This podcast delves into next level strategies to help us navigate the risks and hazards of the industry at this time. We will be discussing:
- Understanding our negative emotions and how to manage them
- Forming a strong, personal identity. Developing a coherent identity which is not based on our success as an actor, whether we get a call back or get offered the part
- Exploring being emotionally ‘detached with love’ from the industry. Caring enough to invest deeply in our work but not caring so much that it impacts on our mental health
- Creating new narratives for defining success
- Discovering how to anchor ourselves in the midst of personal and global uncertainty
Dr Julie Crabtree M.A. Dip Ed, FCHP, FCCOUNP, CCLP, MAPS, MBPSs, CPsychol. Clinical and Counselling Psychologist Secretary APS Arts and Performance Interest Group Director Zebra Psychology As an experienced clinical psychologist, Julie has worked extensively with a range of people and is experienced in treating complex issues.

In her practice, she regularly sees performers, creatives and their partners who are experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship issues, performance anxiety and the range of concerns that face those in the creative industries.
