Our Drama workshops aim to make students think, to stretch the intellect, fire the imagination, challenge preconceptions and unlock creativity – to encourage, inspire and empower.
Well done all of you – I’ve never seen you work so hard!

Our teaching style is practical, accessible and down-to-earth. Drama workshops are conducted in a friendly, easygoing atmosphere in which everyone gets involved and contributes to the best of his or her ability. Students are encouraged not to fall back on the tried and tested but to push the envelope and discover new talents. Teachers regularly comment that even their weakest students are brought out of themselves and our watchword is Dare to be Brilliant!
How We ‘Pitch’ a Drama Workshop
We liase with teachers as to the strengths and weaknesses of their students and the key issues the workshop will address. During the Drama workshop, we adapt our approach according to the students’ response.
Your workshops are always pitched just right – just above the level they’re at now – you make them reach for it – that’s why I have you back again and again – I know I can trust you.

You don ’t dumb down or patronise the students in any way – it’s no good when people do that, they switch right off – but you get it just right.

Our Drama workshops address the issues that concern you and help students answer exam questions on key topics or produce top grade course work.
We aim to complement and reinforce your own work whilst introducing the students to fresh ways of approaching texts and topics.
