Step into the depth, strength, and musicality of the Russian accent - built for performance, in real time.
Explore the world of Russian accents in this live, 3-hour workshop designed for actors looking to build greater specificity, flexibility, and confidence in their accent work.
Format: Live (Zoom)
Duration: ± 3 hours
Date: Saturday - October 3rd, 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 Russia - with a focus on performance-ready application.
The Russian accent is often portrayed through stereotypes, but beneath those familiar tropes lies a rich and highly structured sound system shaped by language, history, and culture. In this workshop, we'll move beyond caricature and focus on the authentic speech patterns that give the accent its distinctive character.
Working live allows for real-time adjustment, exploration, and a more embodied understanding of the accent.

Rhythm, melody, and placement

An embodied Russian accent
Actors:

wanting real-time guidance and refinement
expanding their range with a globally recognisable accent
Accent work isn't about imitation.
It's about understanding the sound systems, influences, and choices that shape the way people speak.
This is an invitation to explore Russian accents with specificity, authenticity, and respect for the voices behind them.
