Liverpool Adult Acting Classes

ActUpNorth Liverpool offers a new, modern, and innovative approach to actor training. We’ve remoulded tired and worn actor training methods to deliver a truly unique and contemporary approach fit for the modern industry. All students follow a stringently devised curriculum and undergo regular observation and monitoring to ensure their continued progress and development.

Our workshops cover a host of mediums and techniques, with a strong emphasis on ‘acting for camera’. The vast majority of sessions consist of working on TV scripts from productions that are currently being made or broadcast. Students also benefit from our state-of-the-art equipment and technology. After years of development, we’ve finally be able to roll out ‘multiACT’™ to our sites. ‘multiACT’™ is our bespoke technology developed for and by ActUpNorth to technically deliver an ‘acting for camera’ class like no other. ‘multiACT’™ works alongside our HD cameras allowing students to regularly view their performances back. This tool has proved incredibly useful in helping our students and tutors alike identify specific individual areas of on-going development.

Terms last for 12-16 weeks and are divided into three modules, each of which lasts for approximately four weeks. This means it is possible to join our programme at varying times throughout the year.

In addition to a regular tutor, students also get the valuable opportunity to work with a host of well-known, visiting industry experts including casting directors, agents, directors, and producers.

FEES: Classes are priced at £20 for 2 hours. This figure includes the cost of all additional guest tutor and professional practice classes. A fee of £80 is payable in advance every four weeks, though discounts are available for those wishing to pay for the whole term in advance.

COMMITMENT: The minimum commitment to study with ActUpNorth is one term.

WHEN: If you are accepted onto our programme, you will be invited to attend 1 x 2-hour class each week. Class times vary throughout the week with some running weekdays 5pm-7pm or 7.30pm – 9.30pm.
