Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between speech & drama and acting classes?
Speech & drama focuses on diction, projection, verse speaking, and prose reading — often leading to LAMDA or Trinity exams. Acting classes emphasise character work, improvisation, scene study, and ensemble performance skills.
What age can children start drama classes?
Creative drama and storytelling programmes are available from age 3–4. Structured acting and speech & drama courses typically begin at age 5–6, with advanced scene study and devised theatre for older children and teens.
Do drama classes help with school interviews and public speaking?
Absolutely — drama training develops clear articulation, confident body language, eye contact, and the ability to think on one's feet, all of which directly benefit school interviews, presentations, and public speaking situations.
