Method Acting has over the last 8 years become a leading Acting Studio Facility providing an invaluable, vital and thorough environment for the craft of acting. The class empowers both professional and evolving actors in the UK & internationally with techniques centred on the work of Lee Strasberg. Classical techniques have subsequently been introduced to formulate a substantial and robust acting methodology.

Sam Rumbelow comes with 25 years experience in the industry. Having been teaching and coaching for 10 years, he is now established as the prominent Method practitioner in the UK. His unrivalled experience in Method, his training, and body of teaching enables him to develop the actor's "instrument", evolve their acting technique - and unlock their true creative potential. His work this year includes a collaboration with Britain's Turner Prize winning artist Gillian Wearing on her debut feature film, "Self Made". Later this year Sam will be directing "Trading Faces", the latest production of the The Actors Ensemble, of which he is the artistic director.

Method Acting's dynamic facility is structured to develop your craft. On the next page are some of the jobs that have been secured by members past and present of this intensive acting class. These achievements have been accomplished in some cases from as little as one class to longer work that has developed a substantial change in the depth of their acting ability, leading to securing major roles. This empowering environment unravels the complex & rewarding process of the actor, increasing your capacity to meet the challenges of both the industry and your creative desires.
