Class description

Youth Drama Club is a 10-week acting course for both non-native and native English speakers. Through improvisation, games, role-play and text work, we teach acting skills in a friendly and supportive environment. Each age group has a class size of about 16 students.

Drama is a fun, creative activity that can be offered to young people of all abilities. The imaginative and playful environment of the Drama Club helps young people develop self-confidence, and performance, team-working and problem-solving skills. Led by GEST’s English speaking professional actors or drama practitioners, there are plenty of opportunities to learn about what happens both on and off stage.

Our Youth Drama Club courses are suitable for both beginners and intermediate students (those who have previously attended GEST Youth Drama Club).

10 sessions per course.

If you have any special requirements or needs, please let us know before the course starts so we can prepare accordingly.
