The Northern School of Acting

A modern actor or actress requires two things in order to earn a living within his/her chosen profession . . . a solid technique and entrepreneurial flair. Autonomy - management of self - becomes essential in an environment where the threat of rejection is ever-present.

The Northern School of Acting has brought together experts from the fields of actor training, education and business. Our programme therefore breeds a new approach to overcoming the challenges of being a professional actor or actress, grooming our students to strategically manage their careers as well as bringing out and building on the distinctive individuality that is the skilled actor's/actress's only real guarantee of success.

Our teaching uses a fresh and innovative methodology based on a deep understanding of the time-honoured methods used over many years in international acting schools, providing the potential for success in both live and recorded media.

Our legacy is to develop confidence and capability in students by endowing them with a solid and reliable acting technique paired with excellent career management and self-promotion capability.

We firmly believe that our high-octane one-year course model is the ideal vehicle for conveying such expertise.
