Drama
"Try this time - you're not a duck you're a chicken with a French accent."
Drama includes improvisation and role-play encouraging initiative and imagination. Individual skills, confidence and self-awareness are developed as well as learning to interact and communicate with others. Characterisation and script work are undertaken. So whether you like to get the walk first or some change in the voice to help launch you into character, you will learn in drama class techniques and tips in achieving a truthful and complete character portrayal.
Drama is approached in an innovative way, and whilst remaining enjoyable, introduces students to the challenges and demands of creative performance. LAMDA examinations may be taken.
Singing
A large range is covered in class. Pupils can study anything from light opera and musical comedy to popular songs, working on group harmonies as well as being encouraged to go solo. Close attention is given to vocal technique and breathing.
You may find many of the warm-up exercises a great way to start your day!
Dance
With exercises to strengthen and tone the muscles, dancing improves agility and posture, fluidity of movement and sense of rhythm. Dance class will develop an ability to learn different combinations; to attain speed, stamina, co-ordination and an understanding of correct placement, use of floor, spatial and physical awareness. To 'loosen up' is as important for an actor as a dancer in the same way musicians tune their instruments before playing. All performers, whether they be 'actor', 'singer ' or 'dancer' need to 'tune ' their bodies before performing.
Students will experience varying dance styles from 'American Freestyle Jazz dance through to the challenge of Street dancing. Ballet and Tap classes are optional extras.
