Here at the Ascend Actors Group, we are passionate about keeping professional actors growing, rising and ascending throughout the entire span of their careers, not just as actors, but as people.
We understand that an Actor’s career does not follow one a linear path. Like our logo, you may start going up, then to the side, then suddenly you find yourself going down; but with some help you begin to ascend.
Every career and circumstance is different, so we have developed a variation of online and offline training tools to assist you throughout your individual and unique acting career. Anyway, it’s a marathon not a sprint, and our job is to keep you well and truly hydrated throughout your journey.
We are an active supporter of the Actors Awareness Campaign.
