'The way we look at it it's like this...

​

A child participating in our club can take two paths - one path is the opportunity to build confidence and self-belief, to think in a positive way about themselves and their teammates, and to achieve self-development and transferable life skills at their own pace.  All achieved using drama games, improvisation, role-play, dance and song in fun, fresh, imaginative ways on a weekly basis.

​

The second path is one of learning the many creative and practical skills needed to produce a piece of drama or musical theatre that is performed to a live audience.  From all the skills and technique it takes to act, to staging a production, this path takes commitment to a role on the part of the child whether a main acting role or a walk-on.  This comes with a greater understanding of the need for collaboration, for determination, for motivation and a positive attitude. It comes with a greater understanding of who they are, and it comes with a passion of performing that can last a lifetime.

​

Each path is interchangeable, each path will cross the other at different times and different ages, each path can run parallel, but the enormous benefits to our children have been proved over and over again.'
