BOOK NOW

Our four-week Acting Foundation offers rigorous, immersive training in core performance techniques, tailored for those who are serious about acting. This course is designed to challenge and elevate your skills as a performer. Taught by an expert faculty of industry professionals, each class offers a focused exploration of what it means to be a compelling, connected actor on stage and screen.

You’ll receive the vocal and movement training necessary for engaging an audience with clarity, authenticity, and presence. Weekly sessions in on-camera technique ensure your screen work receives equal attention, enabling you to move between mediums with confidence. You’ll also take part in a series of specialised masterclasses, including sessions in casting, stage combat, and physical comedy to allow you to become a well-rounded actor.

We offer a multi-disciplinary curriculum drawing on the approaches of leading practitioners -Stanislavski, Meisner, Hagen, Adler, and Lecoq; allowing you to discover a personal and truthful process that serves the demands of any role.

Working with a dedicated team of professional actors, directors, and tutors, you will receive personalised feedback in a supportive, high-level training environment, leading to the ability to approach text with clarity, confidence, and intention - skills you’ll apply in rehearsals for a final live stage showcase of contemporary scenes and monologues in your casting range - professionally filmed and edited for future use.
