Professional theatre training for children in Leigh-on-Sea
Theatretrain Leigh-on-Sea welcomes aspiring performers from Leigh-on-Sea 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 Leigh-on-Sea is more than a drama club!
Theatretrain Leigh-on-Sea 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!
