IF YOU HAVE ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS THEN GET IN TOUCH
Who can attend the Performing Arts Summer School?
Our summer school is open to young performers aged 8–18. We welcome all abilities, from complete beginners to those with previous performing arts experience. The focus is on building confidence, creativity and having fun in a supportive and inspiring environment.
Does my child need previous experience in acting, singing or dancing?
Not at all. Our sessions are designed to be inclusive and engaging for all levels. Whether your child is brand new to performing arts or already loves the stage, they will be supported and challenged appropriately.
Who teaches the classes?
All classes are taught by working West End professionals who have appeared in the productions being explored during the summer school. This gives students a unique opportunity to learn directly from performers with real professional experience of the shows they are studying.
What will a typical day look like?
Each day includes a mix of acting, singing and dance workshops led by West End professionals. Students will take part in creative exercises, rehearsals and performance activities based on well-known musical theatre productions.
Will parents be able to see what the students have been working on?
Yes! At the end of each day there will be a short informal showing where parents and carers can see what the students have been working on during that day's workshops.
What should my child bring each day?
Students should wear comfortable clothing they can move in and bring a packed lunch, snacks and a water bottle. Trainers or dance shoes are recommended.
