Coaching for adult actors →What casting in Dubai looks like
Dubai is the UAE's largest English-language production market, with Dubai Studio City and the wider creative industries cluster supporting commercial, streaming, and international feature work. The city's multinational population makes it a distinctive casting market with an unusual range of accents and ethnicities in demand.
Coaching for young Dubai 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 Dubai minors hold a current Good Conduct Certificate, issued by the UAE Ministry of Interior. Documentation is sighted by us before the first session with a minor, and by you on request.
Coaching for Dubai-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 Dubai. Accent work is available when the role demands it.

My son's school drama teacher could not prepare him for a screen audition. Freya did.
The self-tape setup advice alone was worth the session.
