Hello!

We’re Lucie (Actor & Mental Health Coach) and Frankie (Actor & Practitioner), and we’re launching a grassroots initiative called Drop the Act – a mental health support space for those in the performing arts.

The idea is simple but powerful: no performances, no pretenses – just real talk, real people.

Through free, fortnightly meetups, Drop the Act offers a safe, non-judgmental space where actors and performers can connect beyond roles, résumés, or industry pressures. It’s a place to be seen, heard, and supported – to take off the mask and speak honestly about mental health.

In an industry that can often feel isolating and competitive, we’re building a community rooted in authenticity and care. But we need your help to make this sustainable.

Your donation will go toward venue hire, resources, refreshments, and outreach so that these sessions can remain free and accessible to all who need them.

Thank you for helping us create something real.

With love and gratitude,

Lucie & Frankie
