[The studio] has instilled a great amount of grounding, focus and discipline for me in my following years as a graduate, the time that I spent under Miss Psaltis’ wing helped path the way for me in my career as an actor.

She will continue to be a strong mentor figure to me for the rest of my life.

Parent Testimonial on Google:

August 2026

My 13 year old daughter has been attending classes at the studio since she was 6 years old. We have seen her confidence grow enormously over that time, and she has had the opportunity to develop her skills, work on a professional project and compete in Eisteddfods. She has also learned important life skills, like empathy, emotional resilience, how to take on feedback and setting and achieving goals. She has found community in strong and supportive friendships with her fellow students. Marianna and the team provide exciting and enjoyable classes in a safe, inclusive and supportive studio for their students to thrive.

Parent Review R Green

My daughter has been attending Brisbane acting in drama since she was 14 years old. the studio and Miss Mariana psaltis watched her grow up, it is the Best and safest learning environment my daughter has ever been in, not once has she felt left out or unsafe around the Team or environment that she’s in, Mariana and the rest of the staff prioritise every child’s safety and wellbeing as well as their privacy, at Brisbane acting and drama the kids safety has always come first and I’ve never once second-guessed that when dropping my child off . Miss psaltis is constantly providing amazing opportunities for the kids and teaching them important life skills. This is not just a learning environment for your child, but it will also become a second home and a second family. I would highly recommend this to every parent that is wanting to enroll their child in an acting class, every child is treated equally and each child holds the same priority
