Step into a grounded, believable rhotic Southern accent - built for performance, in real time.
Explore the world of American Southern accents in this live, 3-hour workshop designed for actors who want to expand their range with a highly castable, industry-relevant accent.
Format: Live (Zoom)
Duration: ± 3 hours
Date: Saturday, May 16 2026
Time:
10:00 AM – 1:00 PM (PST)
6:00 PM – 9:00 PM (UK)
7:00 PM – 10:00 PM (SA)
Spots are limited to allow for a focused, high-quality working environment.
Together, we’ll work through the core building blocks of the accent - exploring the PEOPLE, POSTURE, PRONUNCIATION AND PROSODY of the South - with a focus on performance-ready application.
This is not about approximating a “Southern sound,” but about developing something grounded, specific, and playable.
Working live allows for real-time adjustment, exploration, and a more embodied understanding of the accent.
