While it may not feel like summer is around the corner, hang in there—it’s coming!

As always, ACT2 has been busy behind the scenes preparing for our Autumn term and holiday clubs. We are delighted to announce that two new classes and new venues are now open for our September term. You can book now and pay in September to secure your spot.

We are excited to introduce ACT2 Minis, especially designed for children from Nursery to Year 1. We are currently offering a pick-up service for Handsworth Primary students, though the tuition class is open to all children in this age group with a drop-off option available.

Additionally, our new venue at Highams Park School offers a massive hall, with plans for stage access once the new building is complete. This class is open to all ages. If you cannot wait until September, please sign up for Camps Festival—three weeks of holiday club fun!

Starting in September, we will begin working on two huge whole-school productions, so there will be plenty to keep our actors busy. ACT2 has been running in the heart of Highams Park for over 22 years; we are an Ofsted-approved school, offer sibling discounts, and accept childcare vouchers.

All details can be found on our website, or feel free to contact the team for further information.

Happy Friday to you all!

SPRING FLING APRIL 2026

We had the best Easter break EVER at SPRING FLING

30/03/2026

ACT2 is delighted to announce that three rare spaces have become available in our ACT2 Academy Senior class for the Summer term. We are currently bidding farewell to our students who are preparing for university, and as we are taking part in National Theatre Connections this April, new recruits can join us starting April 29th for a 10-week term.

The booking page is now open and will close as soon as these spots are filled.

This program serves as a fantastic stepping stone into the arts. Our students benefit from visits by industry professionals, and all Academy Seniors ages 13+ have the opportunity to join our film, theatre, and television agency. Our past students include West End star Nyah Nish (The Book of Mormon) and BRIT Award winner Olivia Dean. Our current talent has worked alongside figures such as David Beckham, Lewis Hamilton, Andrew “Freddie” Flintoff, Sadie Frost, Celia Imrie, Lesley Manville, Sheridan Smith, Daniel Mays, Jamie Redknapp, Mckenzie Crook, Joan Collins, and for those of you old enough to remeber Bruce Forsyth....... GOOD GAME GOOD GAME

There are many more future talents currently waiting in the wings here at ACT2 Academy. You can find all the details and the booking link on our website below:

I am reaching out to local businesses that I personally value and use within our community.

Our “BOOM BOOM” Charity Comedy night always features a raffle, which usually consists of items like chocolate and refreshments. For this March, I would like to host a voucher raffle instead. I am writing to see if you would be willing to donate a gift voucher that winners could use at your venue or toward one of your services. Any amount would be greatly appreciated.

In return for your generosity, we would like to offer you two complimentary tickets to one of our upcoming Comedy nights. Our next events are scheduled for March 26th and May 14th. Additionally, we are more than happy to promote your business on our social media and “thank you” pages.

As we are a registered charity (ACT2 AID), please do not feel obligated to accept this request. However, if you are able to donate, please let me know and a member of our team can arrange to collect the voucher from you. We are hoping to have all donations collected by March 20th.

Thank you for your time and for everything you do for our community.

Best regards,

Amanda Goodwin
