If you’re looking for a fun and challenging drama class outside of school then the Australian Theatre for Young People (ATYP) is for you. ATYP’s weekly drama classes are broken into two semesters annually and run seven days a week throughout the school terms. All classes are led by dedicated, industry-trained actors and directors who will improve your acting skills in an exciting and encouraging environment.
When joining a class for a semester, you can expect to spend the first term developing performance skills. Acting classes can include acting for stage, acting for screen, comedy, drama, verbatim theatre, self-devised work, audition techniques and many other drama skills. In the second term, you will continue developing these skills as you work with your teaching artist to create an end-of-semester showcase performance. There are also specific workshops for kids who want to dip their toe into the classes before committing for a full semester.
There are classes for kids who are homeschooled, in primary and secondary school as well as online options.
