Summer school

A 5 week summer block for Young Performers running from the 28th July - 29th August.

Summer school

This summer, a flexible drop-in program has been designed to work around holidays/activities while still delivering exciting and inspiring skills-based content. Each week will feature a “Challenge” and a “Special Event.

Challenges are tasks that are issued weekly for students to complete when they can. They will post their work in the dedicated “Forum” on the website where they can comment and reflect on each others work. The Challenges are designed to broaden the students understanding and reference and to get them to think and work independently before coming together as a community – applying skills and following their own intuition and passion.

Summer school

Special Events are a series of Masterclasses with industry pro’s and guest tutors. These will include a Casting Workshop (with Ben Brooks – iAP Talent Group) and a Masterclass with West End star of Matilda; Lydia White. This series is designed to inspire and fuel their creative vision while giving practical insight into the life & skills of a working actor.

There will be many things for everybody across this bloc – so please stay tuned, sign up and engage when you can! A run of classes this exciting will be quite special indeed.
