Coaching for young London actors
We coach performers aged 7 to 17 in one-to-one sessions. A parent or guardian is always in the building, and in the room or an adjacent room depending on the child's age and preference. Session material is agreed with the parent in advance.
All coaches working with London minors hold a current DBS Enhanced check, issued by the Disclosure and Barring Service. Documentation is sighted by us before the first session with a minor, and by you on request.
Coaching for London-based adult actors
For adult actors at every stage: pre-representation, signed but underworked, mid-career, and working actors preparing for specific high-stakes auditions. If you have a callback next Friday, we work the callback. If you are preparing a self-tape in 24 hours, we work the self-tape.
Material reflects the casting pipeline in London. Accent work is available when the role demands it.

London questions
-
Where do London actors audition in person?
Most in-person casting happens across central and west London. Agents and casting directors are concentrated there, though self-tape has become the default first-round format.
-
What safety check applies?
The DBS Enhanced check via the Disclosure and Barring Service.
-
How important is RP for London casting?
Less than it used to be. Regional English accents are common across contemporary casting. Most working London actors carry RP alongside their native register.
