About us
Let’s meet online and in person to play and develop some new (or old) acting skills.
Our acting sessions are for you if:
- You ever thought about taking up acting as a hobby.
- You did drama in college, uni, school and you miss it.
- You ever needed to speak in front of people and wished you had some more tools (and some more confidence).
- You like to play and be creative (and sometimes silly).
- You want to meet new people.
- You are an adult (but really a child).
We will play, learn skills, create and perform.
We will become more free & confident in front of people.
We will make new friends and get to know ourselves in a new way.
All of the sessions are suitable for beginners with little or no experience.
More experienced performers are very welcome to join and play with us too :)
Most sessions are run by Theatre Gym and Tal Jakubwiczova

·OnlineOnlineYou have to sign up here to get a link
This is a taster class for our Voice Acting Foundation course.
Join if you want to experience voice acting for yourself.
We’ll talk you through the different worlds of voice acting (it’s not all Disney and Pixar) and the unique opportunities they hold for voice actors.Join this free class and discover:
- How to read from the page and sound like you’re not
- Simple tricks to make your reading more interesting
- How your own voice responds to instructions and prompts
- And so much more …
You will even get a chance to read a script out loud and improve your reading.
We will have a short Q&A session at the end of the class so bring any questions you might have about voice acting.The workshop is led by voice actor Jen Bradley
Jen is an experienced voice actor who’s worked in the UK, Canada and the US.
She worked for global brands including Dove, Philips and Clearblue, and is currently voicing Luna in MoCo.
There’s nothing she loves more than to be trapped in her little padded cell (voice booth!), talking to herself. She'd love to share her enthusiasm with you and get you to experience voice acting for yourself.

The Technique of (many) Characters - 4-week course
·OnlineOnlineAn online vocal technique course for voice acting.
We'll show you how to:
- Voice very different characters for the same project (a common request in video games and animation) and shift quickly between them.
- Read an audiobook with different character voices and go back to exactly the same voice for each character.
- Do all of this in a healthy way that will keep your voice ready for the next project for years and years to come.
What do we mean by "technical"?
- How to control the different parts of your voice box.
(Not just theory, actual excises that you'll practice until you can do it) - How to technically produce different voices and sound qualities.
(manipulating your larynx in different ways and then mixing it up) - Breath control, voice placements, controlling tonality and so much more…
To do this, we'll work with voice acting scripts, making up and playing with different characters.
It'll be fun!Hi, I'm Sandra
I'm a blind voiceover artist.
I'm also a classically trained soprano singer, a stage and TV actor and a radio presenter.
My Opera career gave me the tools to understand and control the voice in a way that I found extremely beneficial for my voice acting career.
I'd love to teach you that technique too, so you can stand out from the crowd in your mastery of your instrument.
Oh, and I'd love to hear what characters you'll be bringing into the sessions :)The course is open to all (complete beginners included)
- No voice or voice acting training is needed
- You don't need a good voice
- You don't need any special equipment
- You don't need to be a native English speaker
