When Doors Close: Finding New Paths in Acting Education

The sudden liquidation of the Scottish Institute of Theatre, Dance, Film & Television has undoubtedly caused shockwaves, leaving students who were ready to embark on their training feeling uncertain and anxious. Such an unexpected closure can feel deeply unsettling, but it's important to remember that every ending can lead to new, unanticipated beginnings.

At Acting Coach Scotland, we want to extend our sincere empathy to everyone affected. We understand the disappointment of disrupted plans and the stress that comes with uncertainty. However, the acting profession has always been about adaptability, creativity, and resourcefulness—qualities you're now being asked to draw upon earlier than expected.

We firmly believe that every challenge can become an opportunity. To support those impacted, we're opening our doors wider. We have spaces available on our upcoming Full-Time Acting Courses:

  • HNC Foundation Acting

  • HND Acting and Performance

  • 1-Year Professional Diploma

Recognising the financial strain unexpected changes can cause, we are also offering bursaries to assist with travel expenses, ensuring that financial concerns are minimised as you explore new options.

If you're feeling unsure about your next steps, we warmly invite you to reach out. A conversation can open pathways you hadn't considered, and at ACS, we pride ourselves on being approachable, understanding, and flexible.

To discuss your options or learn more about our courses and bursaries, please contact us:

Remember, your journey into acting hasn't ended—it's simply shifting direction. And sometimes, the path you hadn't planned for can lead you exactly where you need to be.
