CLASS DESCRIPTION

DramaCo

Tiny Actors & Dancers

These are smaller class especially for 3 – 4 year olds. Younger children enjoy fun and exuberant group games and time to sit and talk with confidence about their week. The class also includes rhymes, songs, and fairytales, let’s pretend and games exclusively for their age group. They are still of course involved in our productions but the class will focus more on the activities they love instead of lots of rehearsals.

The Tiny Dancers element encourages children to enjoy music and dance through movement. It is time for fun games to help develop mobility and uses techniques based on yoga, ballet and dance. Music genres include nursery rhymes, classical music and pop songs.Waiting List available.

Junior Drama & Dance

These are smaller class especially for 4/5 - 7 year olds to promote confidence and performance skills. Children enjoy fun and exuberant group games and time to sit and talk with confidence about their week. The class also includes rhymes, songs, and fairytales, let’s pretend and games exclusively for their age group. This is followed by a more focused acting exercise and voice techniques building towards a performance. They are still of course involved in our productions but the class will focus more on the activities they love instead of lots of rehearsals. This may be a performance we are working towards for an end of term show / public performance or a performance that builds into it all the acting & improvisation techniques we have been using within the lesson's theme. Themes are Cowboys and Cowgirls, Prince and Princesses, Doctors and Nurses, Witches and Wizards and many more.

DramaCo Youth Theatre

This class is for our older students 8 years plus (or those whose albility is 8 years up) who often take the leads in our productions. As such the session runs as a young person’s theatre company. We focus on acting, performance skills, singing, dance and look at the mediums of theatre, television and film. Each class starts with warm ups, strengthening the voice, followed by movement based activities. The class then expands into improvisation & acting exercises. The last half of the class focuses on performance. This may be a performance we are working towards for an end of term show / public performance or a performance that builds into it all the acting & improvisation techniques we have been using within the lesson's theme. Please see our Performance list on our home page for past productions that were cast entirely from this class and Senior Drama such as A Midsummer Night's Dream, a Film & TV Premiere, Lymington Arts Festival and many more.

Glee Club

Our brand new Glee Club for 6 to 16 yrs is a chance for your child to enjoy the benefits of singing and dancing in one energetic, fun filled 90 minute session. A Glee Club is a singing group that combines pop songs with modern group dance routines for people of all abilities to enjoy. Members will have 45 minutes of a singing class against a backdrop of up-to-date, lively pop songs and then 45 minutes to work both individually and as a group to create dance routines. Culminating in a final all singing & dancing performance each week. This is all led by our fantastic professionally trained singing and dance teacher. Recent productions have been Music Videos created by the class using Jessie J and Cats and a performance of a mashed up version of Thriller and Katy Perry's Fireworks for our Shock / Bang show.

LAMDA

Junior LAMDA

We have introduced these class specifically for younger members of DramaCo. We have a group voice and speech session with posture work. Students then spend time practicing script work on a duologue, play, monologue or LAMDA text. Their chosen scripts are then worked on with the tutor on a 1 to 1 basis and then we critique supportively as a group once they have built confidence. Members will then be entered into an externally assessed LAMDA examination. Classes are Tuesdays after school or Saturday lunchtimes at the Community Centre. Click HERE for further information.

Speech & Drama Workshop followed by optional LAMDA

This is for older students who have a real interest in acting and is an hour workshop followed by an hour LAMDA class for those who wish to do both. The Speech and Drama session includes a drama workshop with voice and speech techniques and posture work. We then work with scripts or devised drama building towards an end of term show. In the LAMDA class that follows students then spend time practicing script work on a duologue, devised play, musical theatre song or monologue for a LAMDA examination. Their chosen scripts are then worked on with the tutor on a 1 to 1 basis and as a group where acting is critiqued in a constructive and very supportive environment. Click HERE for further information.
