‘ICAT Coffee Club sound too good to be true??? Well I can assure you not only is it true but it WORKS!!! And it’s the best investment I have made into my career. Thanks to the continuous workshops on ‘ownership’, extensive monologue library and absolute golden nuggets of insight that they lend so freely — I’ve managed to not only land my first cinema release movie role as a principle member BUT have also been shortlisted for several and won a place at a major British drama school’

THIS IS JUST SOME OF WHAT MEMBERS ARE SAYING ABOUT US…
‘I just shot my first feature — it’s a cinema release and guess what, the director has cast me in his next movie. ICAT I couldn’t have done this without you’
Yasmin Gravitas
‘Many belated thanks for introducing us to Head of RSC casting: Hannah Miller over the weekend. I have to say, I achieved a personal breakthrough and I’m really happy with what my process has turned into as I now feel completely in control of it. ’
Scott John Cooper
‘Not only did (this training) massively help with nerves at my last audition, but here’s the big payoff… I was really happy with my performance, so much so that I’m not experiencing that usual weight while I wait to hear back. If I get to do it again on set that will be awesome, but I don’t NEED to if that makes sense. Obviously I need to earn a living but we all know we audition far more than we get jobs so this feeling is a game changer!
Allison Saxton
‘I just got my first TV job! I listened to The Audition Key, had the meeting and, I guess it worked!’
Chloé Delanney
‘I feel like I have been given the key to a brand new sports car and access to Silverstone!’
