Welcome to
GILES FOREMAN CENTRE FOR ACTING PARIS
Your acting training shouldn’t look like everyone else’s.
Where the legacy of Drama Centre London meets bespoke training in English and French. It’s instruction that meets you where you are and prepares you for the international stage.
Think the international market isn’t accessible? Think again
Your acting preparation gave you a strong foundation, but to break into the international market you need more than that. You need small-class, method-based training in English and French that helps you grow as an actor and give you the language support to walk into an international audition and nail it. You need GFCA Paris.
The entertainment industry has changed. With the rise of international productions, it’s no longer impossible to break in on the world-wide stage. However, without the right instruction, the international opportunities remain just that – missed opportunities.
