SUMMER School – CREATORS LAB

These School Holidays, The National Drama School invites young creatives to step into the world of theatre-making in a five-day, hands-on ensemble program.

Over five fun-filled days, our Summer School program will immerse you in your very own mini theatre company. Guided by your tutor, you’ll learn:

  • Performance skills, including voice, physicality and focus to bring your ideas to life
  • How to devise an original piece of contemporary theatre as part of a team
  • How to respond to a stimulus and turn it into a script
  • Editing and shaping techniques to follow threads, distil concepts and extend your ideas further
  • A chance to perform your ensemble piece in our Black Box Theatre, with parents and friends invited to watch
  • A chance to make some awesome new friends who, like you, love to act!

YOUNG ACTORS PROGRAM - SCHOOL HOLIDAYS

The National Drama School’s holiday programs for primary and secondary school students offer budding young actors the opportunity to join an ensemble and work with our professional teachers to devise and perform works for stage and screen. In a safe and supportive environment, learn performance skills that harness your understanding of voice, physicality and focus to convey ideas and stories. Find out how to respond to stimulus, create scripts, and extend ideas further. All holiday programs culminate in a public performance for family and friends. Our age-based groups and strictly limited capacities ensure that each young actor receives the appropriate training and attentions – and can make friends!
