Our Actors Company is our premier ongoing theatre company. If you have attended acting classes and are confident taking to the stage you are encouraged to audition to join us.
With weekly rehearsals and regular performances throughout the year, The Actors Company is one of the most exciting contemporary groups in London. It enables you to participate in theatre productions that fit around your working life. Join a passionate cast, delve into text and craft your acting skills as you rehearse your way to a live performance for friends, family and the wider public on a London stage. Ticket prices are subsidised by City Academy and company members are encouraged to help spread the word by inviting friends, family and industry professionals.
Rehearsals for the next Actor's Company production start June 2022 and we are delighted to announce that we will be producing Macbeth by William Shakespeare. The play will be directed by the brilliant Mark Prince and auditions take place in May 2022. This live, theatrical production will take play in London on Saturday 6th (technical run and first performance) and Sunday 7th August 2022 (second and third performances). To join our cast of Macbeth and perform live on stage you will need to attend an audition.

All City Academy tutors are experienced professionals from theatre, film/TV and performance industries. So whilst they're training you they may also be rehearsing for a West End show or working on a movie. We like that and we do believe it makes a difference in class.
