Acting classes in Queensland.
One-to-one coaching from a working screen actor, serving students across Queensland. For children 7 to 17 and adult actors at every career stage.
Acting classes in Queensland at Tingley's Acting Studio are one-to-one sessions serving students in Brisbane, the Gold Coast, the Sunshine Coast, and regional Queensland. Coaching is remote over video, with QLD-specific coaches where possible given the state's strong international production pipeline. All coaches working with Queensland minors hold a current Queensland Blue Card.

Coaching for adult actors →What casting in Queensland looks like
Queensland runs the largest screen production facilities in the southern hemisphere at Village Roadshow Studios on the Gold Coast, and hosts a steady pipeline of international features. Screen Queensland actively courts US, UK, and streaming productions, which shapes the casting pipeline for QLD-based actors.
Coaching for young Queensland actors
We coach performers aged 7 to 17 in one-to-one sessions. A parent or guardian is always in the building, and in the room or an adjacent room depending on the child's age and preference. Session material is agreed with the parent in advance.
All coaches working with Queensland minors hold a current Blue Card, issued by Blue Card Services (Queensland Government). Documentation is sighted by us before the first session with a minor, and by you on request.
Coaching for Queensland-based adult actors
For adult actors at every stage: pre-representation, signed but underworked, mid-career, and working actors preparing for specific high-stakes auditions. If you have a callback next Friday, we work the callback. If you are preparing a self-tape in 24 hours, we work the self-tape.
Material reflects the casting pipeline in Queensland. Accent work is available when the role demands it.

-
Does Queensland have different safety rules for child actors?
Yes. Queensland uses the Blue Card, administered by Blue Card Services. It is separate from Working with Children Checks in other states. Every coach working with a Queensland minor holds a current Blue Card.
-
Are sessions available in AEST when the rest of the eastern states are on AEDT?
Yes. During daylight saving months Queensland sits one hour behind NSW and Victoria. Your session time is scheduled in your local AEST so the offset is invisible to you.
-
Does the international production traffic at Village Roadshow affect coaching?
Indirectly. Queensland actors regularly audition for US and UK productions shooting on the Gold Coast. Coaching material reflects that mix: US accent work, UK scene work, and local Australian material all in rotation.
