Here we are . . .
CHARIOTEER THEATRE was founded in 2005 with the aim
to offer actors opportunities for professional development.
Charioteer Theatre focuses on the acting process through laboratory form
where actors have the chance to engage with the creative process and to
explore their potentials within it, experimenting with methods and techniques
that could increase their knowledge of the stage and improve their interpretative
skills.
Charioteer Theatre intends to re-establish the Classics as an incredible
resource for inspiration and a solid starting point for the development
of an actor in his/her profession.
In working with the Classics we also hope to contribute to a broader range
of culture in Scotland.
We aim to attract and expand audiences by encouraging actors'
discipline and skill, thereby enabling performances of inspirational quality.
Ultimately Charioteer Theatre has a vision to form an Acting School,
based on these principles, which will serve as a resource for Master classes,
for productions and for community outreach.
In 2005 Anatoli Vassiliev,
the acclaimed Russian Theatre Master and Director, happily agreed to become
a patron of Charioteer Theatre.
Charioteer Theatre founder and Artistic Director is Laura
Pasetti.
