Drama Summer School for ages 12-15
This exciting new course offers young people the opportunity to learn and explore acting in a supportive environment, while making sure they are having a lot of fun and making new friends. Through theatre games and acting exercises, led by Guildhall tutors and experienced acting graduates, participants develop their acting skills alongside their peers, building confidence and self-esteem as they progress.
The two-week course is designed for all levels of experience, including beginners and those who might eventually wish to attend a full-time drama school. It is ideal for children passionate about drama and a great opportunity to learn new skills as part of a stimulating and creative group.
Two visits to attend selected performances in London theatres are included in the course fees.
