The CFC Actors Conservatory will offer actors a very unique transformative professional on-screen experience.
CFC, in collaboration with Canwest and the Brian Linehan Charitable Foundation is pleased to announce the creation of Canada’s first professional level training program for on-screen acting talent. The CFC Actors Conservatory presented by Canwest and supported by the Brian Linehan Charitable Foundation is the first of its kind in Canada and will launch in Fall of 2009.
Open to up to 8 actors, the Actors Conservatory will run from August 2010 to February 2011 and requires a full time commitment.

Actor applicants must be nominated by an agent, casting director, director, producer, artistic director, writer/playwright, broadcast or production executive.
The nomination process is as follows:
- The nominator must email the contact information of the actor they are nominating to Larissa Giroux, Manager Actors Conservatory
- The CFC will then follow-up via email with the actor and forward the Application Package
|
Over the last 20 years, the CFC has trained and launched some of Canada’s most exciting and prolific storytellers while fostering strong relationships and providing many showcase opportunities for our acting community.
As we looked to strengthen our relationship with on-screen talent, we recognized the need within our industry for more in depth, professional on-screen training, training that would adopt the same all encompassing approach to nurturing talent that is the hallmark of the CFC’s programs.
The Actors Conservatory wants to build on the continuum of great theatre actor training that already exists nationally; such as the National Theatre School, Soulpepper, Studio 58 and the Professional Actors’ Lab and focus on furthering the professional actor’s intimate understanding and confidence in working within the film and TV world.
Over the course of four-and-a- half months, the Actors Conservatory will engage actors in the on-screen storytelling and film/TV making process, increase their opportunities to forge relationships both on and off screen, and provide them with an exciting and intimate forum in which to strengthen their craft, work with some of the world’s leading practitioners and significantly workshop their craft on screen.
|
CFC Actors Conservatory is designed to inspire actors, to enhance their artistic and technical skills in film and television , expand their creative and business relationships, and encourage them to continuously push their boundaries in order to be launched as confident, compelling performers. |
CFC is also committed to investing in and promoting our on-screen and creative talent worldwide through increased publicity showcasing opportunities. | |
