ACTT was established in 1992 by its founder and Director, Lesley Watson. Since then, ACTT has grown to be Australia’s leading, independent, specialist school of performance studies offering accredited qualifications that are nationally, and internationally, recognised.

Located in Sydney, Australia, conveniently next to Central Station, ACTT conducts accredited, full time courses in acting, musical theatre and technical production, and an extensive range of accredited and recreational part time performing arts courses (from introduction to acting to advanced acting, screen acting and specialist workshops such as comedy and accents).
