Screen Academy
We believe our Screen Academy is one of the very few groups across the country that focuses solely on screen acting.
The Screen Academy undertakes many projects every year, both in-front of and behind the camera. Actors will work on Showreels, Silent Movies, Trailers, Competition Films and much more. Each year the company works on a Major film shot on location.
-
Stage Academy
The Stage Academy is one of the most respected production companies of its kind. The company takes on at least one major production a year that is performed in a professional theatre space.
As well as the production focussed terms, students will also take on a programme of workshops and masterclasses covering a wide variety of stage, screen, voice over, and radio skills.

The Workshop
The Workshop is a weekly evening group for all ages. Whether it’s acting, devising, voice work, writing, screen or producing that your young actors are interested in – these sessions can be their springboard into the industry. The Workshop is fast moving, exciting and most importantly full of fun.
