Stage and screen actor-development
Weekly:
You will join us for 2-3 hour sessions every Thursday evening. These are mostly led by Sherina and Robbie, and we also frequently invite guests along to lead, whose inspiring and impressive careers mean that they have a whole cocktail of wisdom to share! Annually: You will take part in our Performance Festivals: The Russell Actors Improvisation Festival in late Autumn; and The Russell Actors Plays Festival in early Spring. Summer opportunities: often in July or August we will offer one-day trips or one-week courses. Previous locations include: London, Kent, Gloucestershire, Scotland and Brighton. Ongoing: There is the opportunity to join the Y.A.C Talent Film, Theatre & Television Agency, depending on your age and experience. We offer continual support for auditions, feedback for self-tapes and are here for career advice. As a Russell Actor, you will be on the Whatsapp group where audition opportunities and other job opportunities are frequently shared. This is also a space to share ideas. |

Y.A.C Talent AgencyAll Russell Actors are offered the chance to be a part of The Y.A.C Talent agency following the first term with us. If eligible you will have the opportunity to join Spotlight (the national database of professional actors) where almost all of the major auditions are advertised. You will be on the books of Y.A.C Talent, who will get to know you and put you forward for the relevant roles. For any auditions that come up, you then have our bespoke support throughout the process.
You will have the opportunity to have your headshots taken by our professional photographer at the greatly reduced rate of £50. (Some photographers charge around £500 for headshots) Through this agency, actors have appeared as lead roles, supporting characters and background artists in over 500 productions on stage and screen. Some of the television and film productions include:
