I’m a beginner who has always wanted to give acting a try. Are your courses suitable for me and where should I start?
Yes. Our courses are aimed at those with little or no acting experience who are considering or who want to become professional actors.
Most of our students are new to acting and have always wanted to give it a try. We recommend starting with our Introduction to Method Acting Boot Camp. The course is 100% practical, allowing you to give acting a try in a professional and supportive environment with like-minded people and expert tuition. It also serves as a great ‘taster’ for our Ultimate Acting Programme.
If you would like to train to become a professional actor, you can apply for our part time, one year Ultimate Acting Programme.
