Andrew Lincoln balances high-profile screen projects with formidable stage work. Recognized globally for leading roles in The Walking Dead and Teachers, his roots remain firmly in British theatre, with notable stage credits including Blue/Orange (National Theatre), A Christmas Carol (The Old Vic), and – most recently – The Lady from The Sea (Bridge Theatre). 

Jonathan Slinger is widely celebrated for his extensive classical work with the Royal Shakespeare Company and beyond, tackling iconic roles including HamletMacbeth, and Richard III, alongside major West End (Waiting for Godot, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory) and television (The Salisbury Poisonings, Steal) credits.

This Masterclass is a must-attend for any theatre-makers eager to understand the rigour, discipline, and adaptability required to sustain a major creative career. Don't miss this unique opportunity to hear a master of the craft discuss his work, questioned by a peer who truly understands the stage.
