Relaunched in 2025 with a revitalised curriculum, HTS provides immersive, embodied, and transformative training through two programmes: the One-Year Acting Training and the Six-Month Theatre Creation courses.
Our teaching—on par with tertiary drama schools—develops actors and theatre makers through a laboratory-style approach, exploring Stanislavski’s method of physical actions, Jacques Lecoq’s poetic body, and popular theatre forms including mask technique, Commedia dell’Arte, clown, bouffon, melodrama, tragedy, street theatre, improvisation, dramatic acrobatics and kapa haka.
