Course and Curriculum:-


The curriculum at RTSA is the result of the professional experience of Prof. Roshan Taneja, founder and former head of the acting department at the Film and Television Institute of India (FTII), Pune. The Acting course is based on the program developed by the renowned acting guru, late Mr. Stanford Meisner at the Neighbourhood Playhouse School of the Theater, New York.

The four months, full-time course is a step-by-step procedure of self investigation for the actor in training. Through the work, the actor in training investigates in-depth, his/her own instrument in order to expand and widen the range of oneself, and respond to the subtleties of the complex and delicate human emotional relationships and situations that an actor faces each time he prepares a new role. The student’s focus is kept on what he himself can do truthfully under imaginary circumstances. Thus, misconceptions are shed, new techniques gained and the actor emerges after 4 months, more of an honest human being who is now ready to “act” truthfully
