Zeus PR Launches Star Celebrations

Zeus PR has loved every minute of working with top drama school company ActUpNorth to coincide with its glitzy ‘celebrity-fuelled’ birthday bash!

The brainchild of ActUpNorth, Peter Hunt, and his senior colleagues have worked tirelessly to grow the business into one of the largest actor training school groups outside of the bright lights of London operating across Manchester, Liverpool and London.

Peter, who is well recognised as working alongside major producers to cast the next generation of star actors, particularly on prime time television soaps and dramas, set up the business following his frustrations at the lack of support for up and coming talent.

Zeus PR has worked closely with Peter and his team to promote the groups achievement to date and generate excitement around the star studded birthday celebrations at The Manchester Palace Hotel, to honour the outstanding success of the fabulous school since it first opened its doors in 2009.

Michelle Holmes and Judy Holt stars of popular TV programme Coronation Street took to the red carpet along with Hollyoaks ‘John Paul McQueen’, James Sutton to join the city centre celebrations.

Celebrities love Missbehaver!

It’s been an exciting couple of months here at Zeus HQ following the launch of gorgeous online fashion brand Missbehaver.com!

Since our last post we’ve been busy chatting to some of our favourite celebrities, introducing the innovative clothing line to a selection of lovely ladies. It came as no surprise when the female stars were all rushing to see the clothing for themselves!

Within days we’d sent items to the gorgeous Hollyoaks girls, including Stephanie Waring & Holly Weston and received fantastic feedback on their Twitter feeds. We were also keen to see what the Desperate Scousewives girls thought of the brand, so we sent out some goodies to Gill & Debbie O’Toole and Layla Flaherty, with the girls quickly tweeting how pleased they were with the outfits.
