Drama is a more direct form of play.
If play is a happy and effective way to learn, then drama must be too! Classes help children develop their imaginations, organizing abilities, confidence, reading abilities, language, listening, and taking turns. Drama presents many different situations, stories, and ideas. Classes are fun and creative.

8 - 12 Years

Drama is where children have ample opportunities to practice listening and speaking, making suggestions, giving opinions, spontaneous ad-lib skills and 

resolving conflict through role playing. 

Speech work is an important part of classes, as they use jaw, lip and tongue exercises to develop good articulation. Students are given the foundation skills to create a character with script or improvisation using the art of story telling. They will learn how to give prepared speeches and be introduced to the performing arts where each class or individual set goals for performance.

Our classes offer further opportunities to students with a continued interest in theatre. They learn more  about the technical side of drama and theatre, while  at the same time allowing voice work, improvisation,  theatre games and mini script work to continue their personal growth, both as an actor and individual, with the  confidence to be an articulate and expressive speaker.
