Adding dramatic effect to your Brewery event RADA to provide Brewery clients with tailor-made presentation training courses

30/06/2006

With return on investment (ROI) at the top of every event planner’s agenda, the Brewery is teaming up with the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts to help keynote speakers impart their messages through speech training for large events.

As the award-winning destination for conference and event planners, the Brewery is constantly evolving its product by responding to customer demand. With event expenditure put under the microscope by procurement departments, the need to impart messages to the audience in a concise, digestible manner has never been greater. Whilst stage and sets may be changed to suite a particular theme, it is the spoken voice that is integral to imparting the message, be it for motivation, training or celebration.

The partnership is designed to help keynote speakers develop in confidence, and therefore become more effective communicators by developing the voice as the most important part of the communication mix. RADA tutors are experienced in guiding aspiring actors to hone their own performance skills and equally for corporate speakers by teaching them how to overcome the barriers to a successful delivery.

All RADA’s courses will be made available either on location at the Brewery, or at your place of work.

Considered to be the foremost centre of excellence in its field, RADA is supported by acclaimed actors such as Lord Attenborough and Alan Rickman. Through its speech training courses RADA has already helped businesses such as BT, Ernst & Young, Balfour Beatty and Yahoo!

Liam Byrne, Concept Development Brand Manager, said:

"The provision of a highly innovative RADA course will help add real value to our clients’ event by providing them with a powerful new skill set designed to help deliver that perfect event – a great return on investment for our clients’ events.”
