Hello!

I’m Grace Blackman, and I’ve been a professional actor for over a decade. I trained with the National Youth Theatre of Great Britain, Loughborough University, Arts Educational Schools London and The National Youth Film Academy. My performance experience in theatre, film, TV and commercials, ranges from Channel 4 and the BBC, to the Edinburgh Fringe and VAULT festival. I also bring extensive experience in business support, such as freelance casting assisting, office management in the finance and construction industries, and corporate and healthcare receptionist duties.

My mission at The Actor’s Assistant is to provide tailored virtual assistance to actors and industry professionals. It is vital for creatives to feel organised, supported, and inspired - and that’s where I can help you! Whether you need inbox management, custom scene writing, self-tape reading, or showreel editing, I’m here to help you streamline your workload to bring back focus to yourself and your craft.

Being self-employed in the arts can feel isolating, but you don’t need to do it alone. Please feel free to explore the site, discover a package that fits your needs, and let’s make your creative journey more manageable and more joyful.

All the best,

Grace
