  • Kylie the Goddess of Youth?

    Ok so the last post was an April fools wind-up. But here’s a thing that’s been bothering us for a while: how on earth does Kylie Minogue still look like she’s in her early twenties? There are always tell-tale signs when you look closely at other celebs who have had some kind of cosmetic surgery.…

  • Nano-acting

    Adhoc Actors is proud to announce that it is to pioneer new medical procedures which will revolutionise acting, performance and eventually the human race. Working in conjunction with the University of Newark, several of our regular actors have been injected with ground breaking new nano-bots that have the ability to let their host take control…

  • En garde!

    Watching the talented ISSA, (International School of Screen Acting), students practicing their test fights was entertaining, especially when they were presented with some childrens play, foam swords, Jannik Archer and Kes Baxter can’t resist having some fun, blowing of some steam and incorporate them into their routine seamlessly! I’m happy to say that they both…

  • Sleepover success

    The British Museum ‘Young Friends Sleepover’, where large groups of children with accompanying adults are invited to attend a night of themed workshops then camp out in one of the galleries. What a superb idea. I wish I was a child again so I could experience sleeplessness IN A MUSEUM! Last nights Sleepover was Viking…

  • National Shakespeare Week

    All the controversy that surrounds ‘The Bard’ still, after hundreds of years, means very little when faced with the huge volume of the work attributed to William Shakespeare. That the stories are relevant still and the characters so real and vivid are a testament to a lasting body of  work that have entered the collective…

    As part of our ongoing relationship with our client The Education Group, we’ve been holding auditions up and down the UK.

  • Viking Raid!

    Really looking forward to Working at the young friends of the British Museum again, doing a Viking movement workshop. As far as we know there are little surviving dances that the Vikings did, (they must have done some), so our movement workshop is based around FIGHTING! With the help of Sam Kahn, fight director for…

  • Castle conundrum!

    All hell breaks loose at the castle in Little Knobbin on The Hill when a headless body is discovered. They all look jolly here though: with added minstels!

  • Chopchopbusybusyworkwork…

    Fantastically busy week ahead of us with lots of storytelling for schools, roleplay training for banks, and even a version of THE SCOTTISH PLAY. Looking forward to it all and getting ready for the week and to working with some splendid actors again, Charlie Ryan, Alice Rowbottom and Mae Brogan amongst them.

  • Bank invest in staff

    We are most recently engaged in providing actors for Role play training for a large financial institution, (okay, bank), who are investing in the future of their staff and doing some great work in the community. Working with the training provider and his colleagues is a satisfying experience as they are so good at organising…
