This Miranda Harcourt workshop aims to support local South Island/Te Wai Pounamu Actors into work. In Spring 2015 Miranda will be shooting the film adaptation of Margaret Mahy's classic novel The Changeover. Harcourt aims to cast a number of local actors in the film, from speaking roles to extras.
Over a two-day period, Miranda will work on scenes from film and TV in order to open up contemporary screen aesthetics to actors both new and experienced.
