First Act Arts

First Act Arts Ltd is a hub for community and youth theatre in the North West. We strive to discover, train, and showcase local, upcoming, and young talent in a range of disciplines across the region, and understand that, as a centre for initial training, we have the ability to inspire and positively impact the first steps of students’ performance career paths. We look to make arts training more inclusive and accessible across the North West, forging new paths into the industry, and setting young people up with the skills, knowledge, contacts and experience to succeed in their chosen art form. First Act stands out as a unique training experience: progress and skill-development focused classes; small cast productions; regular masterclasses with industry professionals; career development support for students from entry to graduation; both community and professional external casting opportunities; and flexible curriculum to suit the needs of the student base.
