academy of creative training
ACT Drama School attracts students of all ages and walks of life and enables
people to realistically achieve their ambition of a career as an actor in the
performing arts.
Classes are in the evenings and at weekends so that students can continue to
meet their working and/or domestic commitments whilst re-training.
Affordable Training
ACT Drama School runs on a non profit making basis so we can offer quality
training at affordable rates.
Our ethos is to provide access to professional Drama Training for talented
individuals who have been unable to follow traditional routes into the acting
profession through lack of academic qualifications, financial restrictions or
family responsibilities.
