Whether you are starting from scratch or returning to acting after time away, we offer a clear, structured journey that can take you from complete beginner to Spotlight-eligible screen actor. 
 
It begins with First Take, our 10-week beginner course in acting for film and TV. From there, you can progress to Take Two, where you will deepen your skills through improvisation, impulse work and early partner-based exercises that help you stay present and responsive on screen. 
 
Once you have built a solid foundation, you can apply for Final Cut—our professional screen acting programme. This is where everything comes together. You will receive in-depth actor training focused on screen performance, emotional truth and professional preparation, designed to help you work with confidence both in front of the camera and in the industry. 
 
To be eligible for Spotlight membership, most students complete First Take, Take Two and Final Cut plus attend Green Room, meeting the required standard for two years of part-time training. Please note, attending First Take and Take Two, does not automatically mean automatic entry into Final Cut, as entry is by audition.

​

If you enter at a later stage—skipping either First Take or Take Two—you will need to continue training longer with us after Final Cut in order to meet Spotlight’s two-year requirement. In these cases, additional months of Green Room membership and industry Masterclasses can be used to make up the difference. We will work with you to build a programme that suits you.

​

Whether you are starting from scratch or returning to the craft, we support actors at every step of the journey—from your first class to Spotlight.
