During our holiday courses we embody the musical we’re
working on! We explore script, learn dances, learn songs and work towards a
performance that takes place on the last day where friends and family are
invited. Our courses are all about having fun, meeting new people, making
friends, building confidence, improving your craft and above all we become an
ensemble. It’s incredible what you can achieve in 4 days and so special to see
how well everyone works together.
We pride ourselves on the fact that we offer professional
training in performing arts at Theatretrain Basingstoke. We love what we do!
Having trained in performing arts I know how important professionalism and good
training is at a young age, and we very much strive for that during all of our
classes and courses. My husband Joe has recently finished playing Phil Spector
in Tina The Musical in London’s West End so we have extremely strong links to
the industry. All of my teachers are trained professionals and have a
real passion for teaching young people and passing on their skills.
Our course takes place at the Everest Community School in Basingstoke (Oxford Way, Sherborne St John, RG24 9UP) this is also where we run our weekly classes. It’s a fantastic facility with a stage and a fully-mirrored dance studio.
Joe Evans runs the course and we will be announcing special guests in due course! Joe has been a professional actor for over 14 years and has worked on both stage and screen.
