What We Do

Casting Workshops create learning opportunities for Spotlight registered adult Actors in the U.K. to help develop their craft and to better understand the audition process in order to aid their personal development and techniques for securing work. By working with leading industry figures to develop script analysis skills, normalising the process of learning sides and improving self-confidence, actors can feel more prepared to grab the opportunities that come their way.

We offer informative sessions where you walk away, not only having learnt something, but feeling like you're being an active participant in a sometimes difficult and isolating profession. As actors ourselves, we promise to always do this for a reasonable cost and no joining fees.

Every session works slightly differently but the basic format consists of an introduction from the workshop leader, followed by individual scene work as a group, which will be followed by personal feedback and redirection ideas. Sessions end with an informal Q&A as a group.

Success as an actor is about talent, but it's also a huge test of persistence and self belief. We think there's no better way to build on these things than in a collaborative, supportive environment. If you're looking for career advice we'll also try to do what we can to help and guide you. Our workshops are about you, so please contact us with your suggestions.

We've run sessions with many industry professionals including Casting Directors, TV Directors and Theatre Directors. These have included:

Ginny Schiller, Lauren Evans, Seth Mason, Jeremy Herrin, Michael Longhurst, Rowland Beckley, Mark Everest, Jonathan East, Ben Marks, Gemma Sykes, Rachel Sheridan, Nicky Bligh, Stephen Unwin, Lucy Amos, Clare Harlow, Daniel Edwards, Martin Ware and many more...
