So, you’ve finished our Acting for Beginners course (or a similar foundation course elsewhere) and you now want to work more closely on scenes and scripts?
This 8-week Scene Study Ongoing course will give actors aged 18+ the opportunity to work on rich and complex scripts taken from modern-day plays, film and television.
Each week will begin by taking 8 actors through a series of ensemble activities and improvisation exercises to help relax and loosen them. And then through thorough textual analysis of selected scenes, the actors will work towards creating compelling and truthful characters who are hungry, driven and connected.
Note: Students will also be assigned new scenes and partners every two weeks and so only those actors with an openness to collaboration and a strong work ethic are encouraged to apply.
By the end of this course, whether you’re aware of it or not, you will have built up lifelong skills that will seep into your everyday lives. You will:
GRACE NAOUM
‘Grace is such a beautiful soul and an absolute delight to work with. She teaches in a way where you constantly feel supported, uplifted and never insecure. Grace has such a happy and upbeat energy and is so talented at helping bring out the personal specialities in each individual actor.” – Molly Ohlback
PAC welcomes students from all acting backgrounds; from those who have never acted before to those who are signed to agencies.
For those with no acting experience, we recommend our Acting for Beginners course.
At this stage, we do not offer weekend classes for adults.
We do not offer a free trial class as such as we feel it can distract the flow of learning for existing students.
What we do offer however is an invitation to prospective students o attend the last class of term. This will give them the opportunity to see, first-hand, the class in action.
PAC is also proud to offer a 100% money-back guarantee on all classes. Should you not enjoy the first lesson of a term (we’re pretty confident you will though!), then we will happily refund the full amount of the course.
PAC's policy is that full payment is to be made before the commencement of a course. We are happy, however, to discuss a payment plan with a student who might be experiencing temporary financial hardship.
We like to keep our class sizes quite low so as to guarantee personalised attention for each student.
Our maximum class sizes are as follows:
Acting for Beginners, Improvisation - max. 15 students
Scene Study, Screen Acting - max. 12 students
Note: A class will not go ahead unless there is a minimum of 6 students enrolled. On the rare occasion that a class has to be cancelled due to low numbers, paid students will be notified in advance.
We encourage all students to wear loose and comfortable clothing to all lessons so as to free their ability to move and explore.
In the event of running late to a class, please call the centre on 1300 828 144 and inform management. Alternatively, send an email to info@13.210.12.134.
PAC does not offer a refund for missed classes.
In order to get the most out of the course, students are strongly encouraged to attend all classes.
For this reason, we do not take enrolments after the commencement of the first lesson.
Our classes are run out of the Information and Cultural Exchange (ICE) in Parramatta.
The address is 8 Victoria Road, Parramatta. Corner of Victoria Road and Villiers Street.
If you're driving:
We recommend parking in the carpark of North Parramatta McDonalds next door and walking over.
If you're catching public transport:
ICE is a 15-20 minute walk from Parramatta train station. Walk all the way down Church Street until you hit Prince Alfred Park. Cross diagonally through the park and ICE will be on the corner across Victoria Road.
On the rare occasion that a class will be held elsewhere, parents will be notified in advance.

Keep an eye out on our Adults course page for for future intensives and masterclasses.
Of course. Our co-founder, Nisrine Amine, is both an educator and working actor giving her plenty of insight into the acting industry. As are all of our acting teachers.
Feel free to organise a meeting with the team to chat about your needs.

Although PAC can suggest names of Sydney Acting Agencies to keen students, they are not affiliated with any of them.
Any advice or recommendations given by the team at PAC regarding acting agencies are personal opinions of the team members themselves.
While staff at PAC may pass on audition notices to actors, they in no way receive payment (monetary or otherwise) for doing so.
Each short course runs for 8 weeks.
Every lesson is 2 hours long and runs weekly for the 8 weeks.
