We are particularly interested in seeing actors who have these following qualities: Actors who enjoy acting as doing. Simplicity. Actors who believe in serving their audience and their fellow actors. People who enjoy the power of co-operation. Who are committed to their craft, and who wish to develop their skill base with a company of like-minded individuals. Who understand the difference between impressing and expressing. Who have a love of classical texts. Who regard failure as creative and success as enriching. Most important of all Actors who like to work.. Actors aren't judged not on what they say, or by what they promise or by what they have done, but on what they do.

We are looking for people who are light hearted, willing and enthusiastic. Once accepted you will be required to take part in Schools workshops. This puts something back into the community that supports us. it enriches us as actors and contributes to the future.

You will be expected to support your fellow actors as they support you. That means being prepared to play small parts as well as leading roles. You will be asked to perform Shakespeare on film as well as in theatre.

A sound understanding of e-commerce and the new technologies is a distinct advantage.

Some advice to actors.

Ham. Speak the speech, I pray you, as I pronounc'd it to you, trippingly on the tongue. But if you mouth it, as many of our players do, I had as live the town crier spoke my lines. Nor do not saw the air too much with your hand, thus, but use all gently; for in the very torrent, tempest, and (as I may say) whirlwind of your passion, you must acquire and beget a temperance that may give it smoothness. O, it offends me to the soul to hear a robustious periwig-pated fellow tear a passion to tatters, to very rags, to split the cars of the groundlings, who (for the most part) are capable of nothing but inexplicable dumb shows and noise. I would have such a fellow whipp'd for o'erdoing Termagant. It out-herods Herod. Pray you avoid it.

Player. I warrant your honour.

Ham. Be not too tame neither; but let your own discretion be your tutor. Suit the action to the word, the word to the action; with this special observance, that you o'erstep not the modesty of nature: for anything so overdone is from the purpose of playing, whose end, both at the first and now, was and is, to hold, as 'twere, the mirror up to nature; to show Virtue her own feature, scorn her own image, and the very age and body of the time his form and pressure. Now this overdone, or come tardy off, though it make the unskilful laugh, cannot but make the judicious grieve; the censure of the which one must in your allowance o'erweigh a whole theatre of others. O, there be players that I have seen play, and heard others praise, and that highly (not to speak it profanely), that, neither having the accent of Christians, nor the gait of Christian, pagan, nor man, have so strutted and bellowed that I have thought some of Nature's journeymen had made men, and not made them well, they imitated humanity so abominably.

Player. I hope we have reform'd that indifferently with us, sir.

Ham. O, reform it altogether! And let those that play your clowns speak no more than is set down for them. For there be of them that will themselves laugh, to set on some quantity of barren spectators to laugh too, though in the mean time some necessary question of the play be then to be considered. That's villanous and shows a most pitiful ambition in the fool that uses it. Go make you ready.
