Do you want to be an actor? Do you know what it takes? This short film lets you rub shoulders with the young hopefuls from Canada's National Theatre School as they sweat and strain through a typical day on the boards. Warm-up exercises, body movements, voice training, improvisation and fencing lead up to the ultimate exercise: rehearsal.
