Event details

Ever fancied being a star of the screen? This is your chance to step in front of the camera and learn how to act for film and TV.

Join an hour-long acting workshop with the Yorkshire Academy of Film and Television Acting (YAFTA) and release your creative side, build confidence, explore fun acting techniques and see yourself perform on screen.
