Whether you’re wanting to access confidence building classes, or forge a satisfying career in the entertainment industry, CSA can help you build the connections and gain the vital knowledge and skills required.


Based at 131 Macquarie St in the heart of Hobart, our regular weekly classes develop students’ individual acting skills, focusing on creating effective on screen performances. Students' work is viewed by local casting company, Jane Binning Casting and their final end of year pieces are shown on the big screen at our End of Year Ceremony at Village Cinemas. As well as this our current students are able to be pitched for top international film and TV productions.  This has never before happened in Tasmania!

To keep you in the loop we fly in casting directors and actors from top national film and TV productions to Tasmania to hold workshops, giving local actors the same opportunities for exposure as their interstate counterparts. Our in depth CSA Career Course for 17yr olds and up is an annual course packed with information about the professional acting industry, and as actors get ready to launch their career we are able to represent them at the highest level via our management arm, Cooper Management Agency.
