Undercover Actors!
This is not some blog about how we do team building characters on fun spy missions. Nope. More interesting than that – and more real. Every now and again we’ve been asked to do a job that is a little out of the ordinary. As opposed to a big showy performance, like people often want,…

GDPR compliance – it just makes sense
We are in the process of finalising the elements of our Data Protection Compliance in line with the new General Data Protection Regulations which come into force from May the 25th 2018. It’s one of those common sense things that should have been legislated for a long time ago: whose details are you storing, where,…

Teenage years ahoy!
This year Adhoc celebrates it’s 13th birthday! Predictable jokes about “unlucky thirteen” aside, we have now been providing actors for entertainment and training for 13 years! That’s no mean feat in the current business and economic climate. It means we have weathered a double dip recession and steered the Adhoc ship through the stormy seas…

100% confidence
We often hear people say about their workforce, “we believe in you”, or to their clients, “have faith in us”. We don’t use these phrases at all. We’ve let our work speak for itself for over ten years now, with clients who rebook our services repeatedly. Many of the same actors being loyal, steadfast performers…

Back to the 50’s
For a big screen event at the Cineworld O2 recently we had to trip back in time – again! Creating characters from the golden age of cinema, when theatres were all gilt and red velvet, we found Eugene, the slightly hypochondriac usher, new to the job, keen but nervous as anything because his mom told…

2016 – the shape of things to come
We have lost so may great talents so far this year. People who were outstanding in their contribution to their art, whether it was broadcasting, writing, musical performance, acting or editing. Many of us have grown up being heavily influenced by the work of such titans and feel lost without their guiding light. Lemmy Rocked…

Ring ring!
We’re currently having some disconnection problems with our phone line but that’s ok, while it’s being sorted by the engineers we have all of social media and the internet for connectivity! If you need to get in touch then ping us an email and we’ll give you a call back -because sometimes it’s better to…

What a Great Rapport!
Adhoc were called in last minute to work with Rapport agency recently, facilitating an enormously complicated team building event for Capital One. The crew at Rapport were some of the nicest people we’ve worked with but we couldn’t have been prouder of the team of actors we put together. Not only professional and slick but…

The Lost Generation of actors!
Have you noticed the phrase”emerging talent”? It is always accompanied by portraits of very young actors, fresh out of drama school, looking to make a living in the business, quite often starry eyed with visions of fame dancing before them. Why not? Good luck to them we say. But there is a whole generation of actors…

Jurassic sparks!
Bookings have gone crazy with our dinoclaws, T-Rex puppet for the opening of the new Jurassic park film this summer. It has been a popular seller since we introduced her last year, appearing at family fun days, promotions, festivals and being filmed terrifying the residents of Oslo but now she, (we call her Sophie), takes…
