DRAMA IS FOR LIFE, NOT JUST FOR THE STAGE!
With this is mind, at Acting Up we offer classes and workshops that are designed to build confidence, self awareness and above all fully equip students with the ability to express themselves in any situation.

About Acting Up
Acting Up was created by Salli Collins, a Native British Drama Teacher in 2013.
Salli has been passionate about Drama and the theatre from an early age. Moving to Hong Kong, Salli realised there was a gap in the market for Drama Specialists with her experience and vision.

Drama Classes
Our drama classes start at age 5 and normally have maximum 15 students. Students are introduced to the basics of drama over the 12 week course. Over that time we study:
-
Stage awareness and orientation
-
Character creation and development
-
Costume, lighting and sound
-
Poetry and story telling
-
Script analysis and writing
-
Show preparation
At the end of the 12 week course, we will put on a performance for parents.
Acting Classes/LAMDA
During these classes the student can choose to work on something specific, perhaps an upcoming role or audition, or we can work on a certain genre, theme or writer. These classes are tailor made to suit the individual needs and requirements of our students.
Under this heading we also offer LAMDA examination classes. LAMDA is a Worldwide recognised qualification for actors over the age of 5. This 10/12 week course offers acting coaching and advice, writer and director analysis and stage skills and techniques. The course culminates with an exam with a professional LAMDA examiner. LAMDA allows the actor to explore new techniques, learn new skills and also delve deeper into the realms of drama and characterisation. Upper grades also have the added advantage of adding points for University and College applications.


Speech and Presentation Classes
This class is either tailor made for the specific student or follows an 8-10 week course based around Preparing and Presenting a speech. Under this heading we also train for Hong Kong Speech Festival competition.
We will cover:
-
Writing our own speeches
-
Preparing for a presentation
-
Presenting do’s and don’ts
