SIRIUS ABOUT ACTING
Actors with Ambition
Our Head of Acting will help you find that inner Oscar Winner.
Have you ever been in a cinema and looked around you to see that every single person around you is silent, eyes unblinking, maybe just a tear running down their cheek and a piece of popcorn frozen half way between the bag and mouth. Chances are you are watching a film or a live show that no doubt has been well written and directed, but also beautifully acted. In fact, some of the best actors are the ones that can take a poor storyline and turn it into a masterpiece. Although, once again, the talent that you are born with can be a factor, we believe that of all the elements of the performing arts, this is one that can be most easily developed at any age. What you will need though is an ability to understand a character by reading a script, to listen to direction, be confident in your abilities, to remember lines and work well in a team. As with everything at Sirius, we will keep you generally in your comfort zone, but gently stretch you to build your confidence and learn and develop without even realising you are being taught anything. Could you be the next Hollywood or even better, UK based star to emerge. It’s very possible with application and ambition. Not only will you have the opportunity to develop your craft on stage, but with a film producer and director on our staff team, you will get to learn the craft in front of a camera too. This in turn could lead to involvement with our YouTube channel Siriusly Good TV or the attention of Sarah-Lee head of Sirius Film, TV and Theatrical Agency.
