Casting is finally looking for the range Leicester actually has. Being findable now matters more than it did five years ago. Around 2 hours to a private Manchester studio, director-led sessions from £195.
Leicester actors reach the Actors Reels studio in Manchester in around two hours, usually changing at Birmingham or Sheffield. Director-led monologue showreels start at £195, with the one-hour three-monologue session at £295.
Leicester has one of the most genuinely diverse casting pools in the country and has spent decades being under-served by an industry that did not know what to do with it. That has changed, fast, and being findable now matters more than it did five years ago.
Curve produces at real scale and De Montfort's drama courses feed straight into it. The actors are here and the demand has arrived — the missing piece is footage that gets them opened rather than scrolled past.
Around two hours with a change at Birmingham or Sheffield. Book the hour if you can: three contrasting pieces give a casting director far more to place you against than one.
Bring two or three prepared pieces and a couple of wardrobe options in plain mid-tones. Monologue showreels covers how a session runs, sessions & pricing lists what is included, and you can see the standard on the reels gallery before you book. To get dates, get in touch or call 0161 706 3220.
Film pieces you can play truthfully and would realistically be cast in. If that includes material rooted in your own background, that is an asset — but the test is always whether it is the best two minutes of you, not whether it signals something.
Not usually. Birmingham and Sheffield are both frequent, forgiving interchanges. Leave one service of slack and the day runs itself.
Book a session or just ask us a question — we're always happy to talk through your reel.
