What we’re about
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

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 Shaun Mendum.
Hi, I'm Shaun,
Ironically, I started my journey as a ballet dancer!
But I now have many years of experience as an actor, performer, and, of course, a voice actor.
I performed in video games, animation, audiobooks, audio drama, documentaries, and more…
I also produce audio and am currently creating a six-part audio series.
I occasionally give talks about getting started in voice acting at Comic Con London and EGX London.
As a teacher, I’m patient, generous, honest, and will create a safe, supportive, and collaborative environment.
I can’t wait to work with you
