Acting Classes & Communications Training in South London

act up, South London:
act up is an independent organisation specialising in communication and acting training. We are located in Lavender Hill, near Clapham Junction in South London. Clapham Common Tube Station is the closest tube station to Lavender Hill. Almost all of the acting and communication training courses take place at The Royal Academy of Dance, located at Battersea Square, which is a 5 minute walk from Clapham Junction in South London. All of the acting courses are short, part-time and professionally based. All of our courses run regularly throughout the year, and they are open to anyone over the age of 18. Among those attending are participants who travel from as close as the next street, right across London, or as far afield as Birmingham, Sheffield and Exeter.

Our main philosophy with all our training is to show every participant a good time. You should always enjoy what you're doing if you really want to learn something new and develop yourself.  Each time we run a course, it is always very different as the core of the work is created around the participants, so no one course is ever the same. The actors and act up do however have a structured outline for each course;  the environment is designed and then it's up to the participants to be brave and throw themselves in. No one has ever regretted the decision.

As we offer a variety of different courses, it is important for you, and us, that you enrol on the course that is best suited to your requirements.
