AKT Children and Young People Drama Classes

Stretching mind, body, voice & imagination

Saturday classes in Drama and Acting for children and young people. All classes taught by our enthusiastic and industry experienced tutors who are all CRB checked. Classes take place in our professional equipped studio spaces.

Established in 1997 ACT is the only Drama School on the South Coast offering professional actor training. We bring the same ethos and expertise from our Adult Actor Training to our Youth Theatre.

As well as developing confidence and the ability to work as part of a team students studying drama have the opportunity to develop skills and understanding in creative problem solving, communication, self discipline, tolerance and empathy. Drama allows children to be active learners and engage and experience a vast range of ideas and situations in a safe and supportive atmosphere. Drama can give children an outlet for emotions, thoughts, and dreams that they might not otherwise have a means to express.

At the end of each term, parents are invited in to see the work that the children have been doing. We believe that the real benefit of drama for children is in the exploration and development of the work – but performance is also a big part of drama - as well as a fun and exciting platform to demonstrate your skills. So end of term showings are geared towards ‘work in progress’ in a safe and supportive atmosphere. All students are given equal stage time and we embrace diversity in terms of ability and experience.
