This week we're hearing from the lovely people over at Actor's Warehouse – one of those rare desert oases of genuine inspiration and instruction actors stumble upon that doesn't turn out to be a mirage.
We'll let the Actor's Warehouse team tell you the rest – and why you should get in touch to see what part of your career they can help you hone. Over to you, Georgie and Pierce.
We started Actor’s Warehouse as a result of our experiences within the industry. We’ve seen the good, the bad and the ugly. We know the hurdles that lie ahead. We’ve been through them. We’ve fallen. We’ve gotten back up. We help you learn from our mistakes so you don’t have to make them.
One of the biggest catalysts behind starting Actor’s Warehouse was observing and experiencing the “sink or swim, nobody’s going to help you” atmosphere that seems so commonplace within the industry.
To be frank, we’d had enough.
There's no reason why actors should be encouraged to tear each other down. This is a creative industry whereby time and time again, we see that collaboration is one of the most powerful tools at your disposal.
So we created a safe space where actors can go - to ask the questions you need to ask in a judgement-free, collaborative environment with the sole purpose of accelerating your career.
Client by client, we’re shifting mindsets, building confidence and turning dreams into reality!
What do we do?
We help actors land roles by giving them the confidence to self-represent in the right way - with a focus on personal branding, networking and a healthy, sustainable mindset.
We also offer a showreel service that is designed to showcase your talent in a way that truly represents your ability to act on screen. We write, film and edit them, so all you have to do is show up and act.
We believe that acting isn’t just a profession – but a part of who you are. We're passionate about helping you find a life you love within the industry, along with the skills and mindset to sustain every aspect of being an actor.
In short, we prepare you for the industry, help you leap over the hurdles that trip every other actor up, and set you on the journey of turning your passion for acting into your full-time career!

In our first year, we’ve helped accelerate the careers of almost 150 actors from a diversity of backgrounds, ages and stages in their careers.
Nothing makes us happier than when we see a client take our coaching on board and land the roles they have strived for – or get taken onto the projects they once dreamed to work on.
