Looking for fun acting classes in London?

Have you ever wanted to act? Do you find yourself watching your favourite movie over and over and wondering what it would be like to play that part? This 12-week acting course will teach you the fundamentals of acting. You will build up a toolkit of acting skills enabling you to unlock character, help spontaneity and free your inner performer from inhibition. We strongly believe in the value acting classes provide for improving self-confidence and life skills.

For the upcoming Spring Term, you will be using scenes from Noël Coward’s Blithe Spirit to develop skills in character and scene development. Building the scenes as an ensemble group you will explore the skills required as an actor when performing a play. As part of the term, in Week 11 you will have the opportunity to watch the play being performed by Stage & the City’s resident Acting Company and compare your scenes to theirs. This is also a great opportunity to see how you could potentially progress with Stage & the City in your acting journey.

Anyone who has ever acted will tell you, there is no greater feeling than taking to the stage in a persona wholly of your own. There is nothing as rewarding as holding the audiences’ hearts in your hand and feeling their collective pulse quicken as the drama unfolds. There is nothing like acting and no better time to try it than now.
