At Theatretrain, Saturday mornings look a little different.
Children and teenagers spend three hours with us exploring drama, singing and dance in a structured but welcoming environment where they can relax, try things out and gradually grow in confidence.
We work hard - but we also laugh a lot.
Every week, students build skills that go far beyond performing.
They learn how to speak up, work as part of a team, listen properly, take direction, support each other and keep going when something feels challenging.
Confidence doesn’t arrive in one big moment. It builds steadily over time.
Our students take part in live theatre productions in professional venues, which gives them something exciting to work towards and real experience of being part of a show.
Every child is involved. Everyone has a place.
If you’re looking for a local performing arts class where your child can develop skills, make genuine friendships and feel part of something positive, Theatretrain offers a safe, ambitious and supportive space for them to grow.
We have some digital resources available via the link below:
Alongside our weekly sessions, we also bring in extra opportunities across the year that give the children something new to stretch into.
That might be a West End–style workshop where they learn choreography at pace, a stage combat session (always a favourite), or additional performance opportunities where they can put their skills into practice in front of an audience.
.
We also run workshops with Goldmans Management, our chosen theatrical agency.
They offer professional insight into how the industry works, guidance around screen acting, and advice on things like headshots and auditions.
For the children who are curious about that world, it’s a brilliant way to understand it properly.
For most, it simply builds confidence and awareness.
For a few, it might spark something bigger.
Either way, they leave knowing more than when they walked in!
