About ARSGO

A creative home where everyone gets a seat at the table.

No experience needed. We use acting and creative work to build confidence, connection and real routes into film and television, together.

Our Mission

Acting is for everyone.

Actors Ready Set Go uses acting and creative work to build confidence and support personal growth for everyone. You do not need previous experience to join us, and not every course is about pursuing acting professionally. Acting is a genuine tool for self expression, confidence and connection.

For those who want to go further, we help people understand and access the film and television industry, with mentoring, industry connections and honest guidance on the opportunities available.

Everything we do is designed by people working in the industry, for people building their confidence or taking their first steps in.

Community Impact

Building More Than Actors, Building Community

The film and television industry can feel closed off if you don't already know someone in it. Actors Ready Set Go exists to change that. We believe everyone deserves the chance to explore their creativity, build confidence and connect with others who share their ambition, so through workshops, guidance and community support, we help aspiring actors take their first steps in, together.

Confidence

Helping people overcome barriers and believe in their potential.

Connection

Creating a community where aspiring actors can support each other.

Opportunity

Opening pathways into film, television and creative industries.
