For too long the world of corporate role play has felt like a closed shop that only a few privileged actors have had access to. Now, this book provides any actor with what they need to start and build a side-career in corporate role play, utilising all of the skills they already have in their portfolio.

Detailing what corporate role play is, how to do it, how to get the work and how to get re-employed, this book offers up a clear roadmap, enabling actors to deliver top-quality role plays and evidence-based developmental feedback time and time again.

Using the author’s masterclasses as a foundation, the book includes a range of role play briefs an actor may encounter, each accompanied by top tips on how to execute them successfully.

Syrus Lowe trained as an actor at RADA, UK, and has had a successful career in theatre, TV and animation. Most recently, he appeared in the hit West End show Best of Enemies and on Netflix’s Treason and BBC/HBO’s Strike. He is also a leader in the field of corporate role play, having worked in the sector for over 20 years with clients from across the world, including BMS Group, the NHS, General Electric and the British Army. In 2021, Syrus co-founded the drama-based equity, diversity and inclusion training company The Communication Practice (www.thecommunicationpractice.com). Since 2016, he has run the UK’s only corporate role play masterclass for actors. He has delivered his masterclasses to graduating students at six of the UK’s leading drama schools and sits on the audition panels for some of the UK’s top corporate role play companies.
