Our strong connections to the film, television, and theatre industries uniquely position MN as both an Ofqual-regulated awarding body and a genuinely industry-facing organisation. Our acting agency, Middleweek Newton (MN) Talent Management, represents and manages professional actors across film, television and theatre.
Our exams are designed around practical skills drawn from genuine industry experience.
From Industry Roots to Educational Recognition
MN began as a talent agency, representing actors for film, television, and theatre. Over the years, we’ve discovered and developed performers who’ve gone on to achieve incredible success - from Olivier Award-winning actors to BAFTA-nominated talent, many of whom we’re proud to represent today still.

![🤠✨ YEEHAW! ✨🤠
Sending a big ol’ “yeehaw” and a big break a leg to the wonderful Matthew Romain and the cast of Whodunnit [Unrehearsed] 4 at Park Theatre on their Opening Night!
Welcome to Graveside, a dusty frontier town where the saloon and general store look mighty similar, gold fever’s running high, and (hobby) horses roam free… 🐎💨
There’s stolen treasure, shady strangers, and a Reverend who might not be as holy as he claims. And each night, a different celebrity rides into town as the Sheriff, completely unrehearsed, armed only with an earpiece and their wits. 🤠🔥

What began as a way to discover and develop new talent evolved into more than a decade of teaching screen acting, filmmaking, and media performance across schools, academies, and studios.
We’ve trained thousands of learners helping them build the confidence, camera awareness, and creative skills that define modern media performance.
A Decade of Screen-Based Education
After we established our agency, in 2012, we launched MN Actors Academy - professional, screen acting classes for adults (16+) that mirror real industry standards.
The MN Actors Academy provides a space for actors to train, refine their screen craft, and be seen by the team at MN Talent Management, our agency division. We do not teach our own exams within our classes.
THE CREATION OF MN AWARDS! ...
That hands-on experience led to the creation of MN Awards - an Ofqual-recognised awarding body specialising in Film & TV.
Our qualifications blend the confidence and communication skills of performance training with the creative and technical craft of screen production - preparing learners for a world where creativity, storytelling, and digital fluency matter more than ever.
MN now operates as an agency - Middleweek Newton Talent Management, adult classes - MN Actors Academy & an Ofqual Recognised Awarding Body - MN Awards.
