Frequently Asked Questions

Should I book a Class Pack or a Taster/Single Class?

We offer packs and early booking prices to keep things fair for those who commit in advance. Booking a taster first and then a pack costs a bit more overall, around 15-25€, but gives you the flexibility to try first. Advance pack bookings also help us plan properly and stay sustainable 🙂

🎭 Class Pack, Best Value
Book in advance to secure your spot and save money.
• Guaranteed place in the course
• €15 off if it’s your 2nd+ course or if you bring a friend
• Free certificate after completing 2+ courses

🎟 Taster Class, Try It First
Ideal if you want to experience the class before committing.
• One-off class, only valid for the 1st or 2nd session of the course
• If you love it, you can upgrade to a pack, if spots are still available

⚠️ Priority goes to class pack bookings.

Who can join acting & improv classes?

Our classes are open to anyone aged 17 and above (most of our students are between 25 and 45). No prior experience or auditions are required. Whether you’re curious about acting, want to improve your communication skills, or are simply looking for a fun and creative outlet, you’re welcome here. We use theatre as a tool for personal growth, confidence, and connection in a supportive and inclusive environment.

Do I need prior experience to join?

Beginners Courses
- No experience or auditions needed.
- Great for absolute beginners or anyone returning after a break.
- Perfect if you’re curious, want to have fun, boost creativity, or refresh old skills.

Do I need to be fluent in English to join?

Classes are in English, so basic understanding is needed. But don’t worry—our native English-speaking teachers will support you even if you’re not fluent.

What are the differences between Acting and Improv?

Acting is more structured and script-based. You portray characters, memorize lines, and explore expression through body and voice.
Improv is spontaneous and unscripted. You create scenes on the spot, using quick thinking, creativity, and teamwork.

Both boost confidence, creativity, and communication—but through different approaches.
