Drama Classes
To run alongside the school's extensive dance timetable, we also offer three drama classes on Sunday mornings, and one drama and two musical theatre classes on Tuesday evenings.
The classses are lead by experienced drama teachers who create an invaluable environment for the development of personal and social skills, growth in self-esteem and confidence, as well as providing a firm grounding in dramatic technique and styles. This is achieved by improvisation, script work, movement, mime, theatre games etc, and often culminates in showings or performances at the end of each term.
Sunday Classes
The three Sunday classes are run by Carl Ferguson, who is a professional actor, having worked extensively in recent years with the Royal Shakespeare Company both as an actor and theatre pratitioner. Carl trained at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama, graduating in the summer of 2001, and is currently an R.S.C. Learning Associate.

This class is for children aged between 6 and 10 years of age and offers a fun introduction to drama. The class is lively, fun and imaginative
10.45am - 11.45am - Intermediate
For Children aged 10-13. A slightly more advanced class, ideal for students who may have shown and interest in drama already at home or at school.
11.45am - 12.45pm - Senior
For students aged between 13-18. A challenging, yet fun class, where students who are passionate about drama are encouraged to develop their imaginations and techniques in a safe welcoming environment.

Carl also offers private coaching for students who may be auditioning for Drama School. He can offer advice on where to apply, choosing the correct pieces and help with audition techniques.
