Why Drama?
There's something magical about drama: it gently coaxes tentative children out of their shell...it offers those labelled as 'too-much' the freedom to make some noise.
It allows those who struggle academically to reveal their eloquent selves...and those with high levels of energy, so often constricted by desks and chairs, to express themselves through movement and physical theatre.
Ensemble work reveals future leaders and collaborators; improvisation uncovers those who can think on their feet.
Children are inherently creative and curious...Drama provides a platform to nurture these qualities.
