About Act Up / CastReady
This isn't your average acting class.
At Act Up / CastReady, we don’t just teach acting—we train working actors. Whether you're a total beginner or tired of hearing “We went another way” after every audition, this is where your momentum starts.
Founded as an extension of our active film production company (with several short films and a feature in the works), our classes are taught by industry pros who live and breathe casting. That means we know exactly what gets you noticed—and what gets you booked.
For Adult Actors:
If you're serious about working in film and television, we’ll show you how to stop blending in and start standing out. These classes are designed to:
- Break bad habits and build strong, bookable techniques
- Teach you how to craft auditions that are bold, original, and memorable
- Get you callback-ready—with confidence
This isn't for the faint-hearted. It's for actors ready to do the work and level up to a professional standard. If you bring the passion, we’ll give you the tools. Many of our students go from overlooked to in-demand, with casting directors requesting them by name.
For Young Actors:
Our kids and teen programs focus on nurturing talent with confidence and creativity. We teach:
- On-camera technique and script breakdown
- How to build characters using imagination and instinct
- A strong sense of self—on set and in life
Every child learns differently, and our approach reflects that. We tailor our coaching to bring out the best in each student, all while making sure they’re having fun and growing as young artists.
We also guide parents and students through the business side of the industry: getting an agent, building a showreel, audition prep, and what to expect on a professional set.
