Testimonials

"Doing the workshop gave me new confidence and I enjoyed it as well as learning so much. Thank you for the chance to learn about myself and some new acting skills."

...Flick Khouri, student

"I learned an awful lot and came out of the class with the definite sense and confidence that I was a much better actor than when I walked in."

...Phil Gwilliam, student

"I'd fully recommend the 'Acting for Screen' workshop to anyone that is truly serious in pursuing a career within the industry. I didn't only learn lots of new acting techniques, but learnt so much about myself; it was a lot like a journey of self-discovery."

...Paul Tolton, student

"I learnt how to act and direct from Colin Snell. My first and best teacher. The lesson was: Start with the text, ask simple questions and keep asking them; never use more than you need"

...Mathew Dunster, Director, Playwright and Actor

"The workshops have been fantastic, I enjoyed both acting for screen and the drama workshops. I feel that I have learnt so much, thank you"

The success of the Academy's training has already seen students cast in featured film roles including: 'Rose Gold'. The film features Ciaran Griffiths (Shameless), Maxine Peake (various ITV & BBC dramas), Michelle Holmes (Coronation Street & Rita Sue & Bob too) and Paul Hurstfield.

The film 'Ashes' starring Ray Winstone and James Sturgess, due for release early 2012 and 'Betrayal' starring Lee Boardman.

William Ash, who currently stars in Waterloo Road, is well qualified to comment on the Academy's commitment to its students in preparing them for the industry; he said "As an actor you constantly need to be honing your skills. The IOM Acting Academy is the ideal place to help you to learn and grow as actors."
