Festivals

Festivals help to develop performance and confidence, and pupils learn to express and project themselves to a live audience.

For those pupils wishing to take up a career in dance and theatre, festivals are a natural progression from the regular weekly classes.

Festivals also nurture a healthy sense of competition - a necessary skill required for a life in the theatre.
