Point Break Drama continues to create more direct pathways to the performing arts industry through knowledge, training, advice and exposing students to many facets of the industry including acting.
We will do this in the following ways:
- Foster current relationships with Talent Agents and build new ones
- Inviting Casting agents to take workshops & give industry talks
- Creating unique opportunities like working with in-house playwrights like Judy Judd- Sandwell
- Inviting guest actors to to facilitate workshops
- Inviting professional film/ TV directors to direct short film projects
- Create new training avenues with new workshops and courses
- Update the news, auditions, events & links page on this website regularly
Point Break Drama is a superlative place to learn and develop acting skills. Adam and Paul have created a school that provides each and every student, no matter their age or ability, with the confidence to further their ability in every sphere of the acting craft whether they are participating as a hobby or with one eye on a career as an actor. I have always particular enjoyed the environment in which they work; not only is it is relaxed and friendly, which encourages creativity, but also focused and determined with education at it’s fundamental core. I cannot recommend the school and the opportunities they provide more highly. I hold everyone involved with Point Break Drama in the highest regard.
