Our weekly Stage & Screen classes cover essential skills and techniques for the young, budding actor. These include:
What sets our classes apart is the emphasis on developing strong skills for stage and screen, preparing students for an industry
where versatility is crucial.
As with all of our classes, we strive to nurture the individual performer and the ensemble cast member. No term is ever the same, which is why some of our students have attended lessons for over 10 years. Class curriculum is always varied, challenging and fun!
Before starting weekly classes students are invited to complete the Stage & Screen Workshop. This workshop ensures that everyone commencing mainstream classes will have the foundational skills to comfortably integrate with our current students. It also allows us to get to know each student’s individual abilities.
During the Stage & Screen Workshop, actors will cover:
At the conclusion of the workshop, parents are invited to a showcase of the stage pieces. You will also receive a copy of your edited scene, filmed with the professional mini-crew.
This workshop runs for 3-days in the school holidays or as 7-week program on Thursday afternoons during the term.

Q: Why do we mix the age-groups in this workshop?
A: Not all exercises are mixed. Students receive individual attention and are split into smaller groups for scene-work. We also encourage students of different ages to work together for exercises like improvisation, as it’s more fun. On-set for film and TV or in theatre productions, the cast is frequently mixed-ages. This workshop is appropriate for students aged 9-17years old.
Q: How many students per workshop?
A: There is maximum if 12 students per teacher for this workshop. We have a maximum of two workshops running at once with one teacher per 12 students.
Q: What’s next? Weekly class timetable?
A: After the workshop, each student is invited into our weekly classes, to the options that best suit their age and ability.
You can check-out our timetable below. We do not publish these booking links on the website as not all classes are suitable for everyone – this is just a guide. We will send you days / times best suited to you once we have completed the workshop.
The workshop is a great way for us to get to know each student and their needs, as we as a chance for them to get a feel for our classes at the studio.
