THE SCHOOL
Our Acting classes offer students the chance to explore script work and improvisation, devising and directing, characterisation, mask work, physical theatre, prop and costume design, stage management, lighting and sound. Students can also prepare for LAMDA examinations in all areas from Introductory to teaching and performance diplomas. We also offer GCSE Drama to students in Year 9 and above.
Our Dance classes offer students the chance to learn ballet, tap, modern, jazz, commercial, street dance, hip hop and contemporary. We also offer GCSE Dance, RAD and ISTD examinations. We run baby ballet classes in Twickenham and mums and babes classes right through to Grade 8.
Our Music department offers students individual and group tuition in singing and music theory as well as individual piano lessons. Students learn to read music, develop key musical skills and performance skills. Students take ABRSM, LAMDA and Trinity music examinations.
Our Musical Theatre classes offer students the chance to develop and explore singing, dancing and acting. They explore a wide variety of genres and musical styles as well as pop, rock, blues, jazz and lyrical work. They work towards LAMDA group musical theatre exams as well as annual performances including a showcase, charity concerts and CD recordings.
Our Playwriting workshops explore ways in which to create characters, plot, structure and how to edit and set out a play. During the first part of the course students explore skills and during the second half of the course they work on two play ideas which they have developed themselves. This leads to writing their own one act play for performance. Trying out ideas is an essential part of writing a play and students read each others work and provide feedback each session, as well as acting out scenes to find out what works and what doesn't.
Performance - We organise regular performance opportunities for students of all ages to enable them to grow and develop as performers and also experience working in local and professional theatre venues. Past performances have taken place at Richmond Theatre, Hampton Hill Playhouse, Lyric Theatre, Bush Theatre, Riverside Studios, Normansfield Theatre, Brighton Dome and the Leatherhead Theatre.
Workshops and Trips - We organise regular outings and trips to various theatres and companies to develop and expand the students knowledge and experiences. Past theatre visits include The 39 Steps, Midsummer Nights Dream, Cats The Musical and workshops including Animation at the BBC, Stage Combat at The Globe Theatre, workshops and tours at The National Theatre and a trip to Belgium to visit the WW1 battlefields and Ypres.
