*DRAMA FOR KIDS AND TEENS*

These great drama classes are designed to give children an excellent grounding in scripted acting in a beautiful theatre setting and a creative, vibrant community atmosphere. Through drama, children develop skills such as confidence, public speaking skills, team-work, imagination, communication, and literacy.

At this age, the children will work on small scripts and poems throughout the term, which will help them develop confidence, stage presence, and voice projection. All of the classes conclude with a showcase in our theatre, giving the children a chance to put what they have learned into practice and gain valuable stage experience in front of an audience in a professional theatre

*MUSICAL THEATRE FOR KIDS AND TEENS*

Teach your kids to tell stories through acting, singing, and dance or movement. These Musical Theatre classes are designed to give your children a solid grounding in all three disciplines and allow them to discover the joy and magic of their coming together in a musical production. They will explore songs and scenes from across a broad range of musicals styles, giving students an opportunity to deepen their knowledge of the art form as well as to learn the varied skills needed to perform confidently as an ensemble and as a soloist.

Following a youth theatre format, students will be given material such as a script or song, to take home and learn which will then be practised in weekly rehearsals. At the end of the season, this material will be performed in a showcase on our stage, giving the children a chance to put what they have learned into practice and gain valuable stage experience in front of an audience in a professional theatre.
