Professional theatre training for children in Ashford
Theatretrain Ashford welcomes aspiring performers from Ashford and surrounding areas who want to learn how to take their ideas and feelings and express them through acting, dancing and singing. Students also take in performances locally and nationally.
Theatretrain Ashford is more than a drama club!
Theatretrain Ashford offers professional theatre training for 4-18 years old in a way that is both fun and effective. More than a drama club, a dance school or a singing group, our performing arts classes give children and young people a place to explore the world and create performances. This process gives them life skills that will help them whether they want a career in the performing arts or the confidence to thrive in the real world. All the world’s a stage after all!
