Hear how happy our students are with our courses here. |
Our HistoryActing Classes In Perth was founded in 2004 when Loren had the idea to start local acting classes after working on a Perth based TV series in 2003 because he saw that Perth was lacking in quality acting classes that taught both the craft of acting and the business side.
Since then the school has grown and become Perth's most successful acting school for beginners - building a solid reputation for delivering a range of high quality courses. We have helped thousands of everyday people develop their creative side, build confidence, and turn their passion into successful acting careers. |

StudentsOur students are of all ages (from 13 through to 80+) and come from all backgrounds, but they all have one thing in common, they want more from life: more fun & enjoyment, more creativity, and more personal achievement & success. We welcome everyone to our courses and love helping a broad variety of people realise their acting aspirations.
Our students start with little or no acting experience but the majority go on to successfully pursue their passion and work in film, tv and stage productions all around the world. And these were everyday Perth people just like you, who took that first step! It's not as hard as you might think it is. Others come and enjoy the creative and fun outlet we provide from their everyday jobs and stressful lives and make life-long friends. If you are a little shy and nervous about enroling in a course please know that most of our students started out feeling the same way but they found that their confidence really developed from doing our courses to the point that it improved their everyday lives. |
Teaching Style & StaffWe understand that many of our beginner students are very nervous and lack confidence so we avoid being intense and intimidating. We have found our students get better results with a safe, supportive and fun learning environment. Even though our courses provide comprehensive acting training we make sure that our students are also relaxed and having fun. We want our students to learn but have a blast at the same time!
