Act Attack Barcelona is part of the international Act Attack theater community founded in Amsterdam in 2017 by George Rigopoulos, offering acting, improv, musical theater, and personal development courses in English. The Barcelona branch serves the city's large international and English-speaking population. Act Attack describes itself as an international theater community rather than a conventional acting school, with personal development as a central mission alongside performance training.

History

George Rigopoulos founded Act Attack in Amsterdam in 2017 after his own experience of personal transformation through theater as a teenager. The organization expanded to Barcelona among other cities, building a community model that emphasizes diversity and accessibility. The Barcelona location operates alongside other established English-language improv companies including the Barcelona Improv Group. Act Attack operates across multiple formats including improv, acting technique, musical theater, and therapeutic theater, and has grown to a community of more than one hundred active participants across its network of European cities.

Artistic Identity

Act Attack approaches improv and theater primarily as vehicles for personal development, positioning the work as accessible to anyone regardless of prior experience. The curriculum spans acting, improvisation, physical theater, and musical performance, unified by the belief that theatrical practice builds confidence, creativity, and communication. The international community model means each city branch draws participants from many cultural backgrounds, shaping the ensemble work toward cross-cultural play.
