WEST END TRIP

Three unforgettable days. Two world-class shows. One incredible experience.

There is nothing quite like seeing musical theatre where it all happens. 

Join us in the heart of London’s West End for three days packed with spectacular performances, behind-the-scenes discoveries and memories that will last a lifetime. 

This year’s trip includes tickets to two of the world’s biggest productions—Hamilton and Harry Potter and the Cursed Child — alongside a special theatre workshop led by a member of the West End Company, offering students a unique insight into life as a professional performer. 

We will also explore some of London’s most famous sights, discover the magic behind the curtain on a backstage theatre tour and enjoy plenty of time with friends who share the same passion for theatre. 

Whether you dream of performing in the West End one day or simply love live theatre, this is a trip guaranteed to inspire.

The smallest look can tell the biggest story. 

Step in front of a professional camera and discover the techniques that bring performances to life on screen. 

Why is acting for the camera so different from acting on stage? Why is hitting your mark just as important as delivering a brilliant performance? And how can continuity make or break a scene? 

Working with an experienced screen acting coach, students will explore these essential skills before putting everything they have learned into practice and filming a professionally shot scene to take home. 

Whether you dream of Netflix or Hollywood, or simply want to become a more versatile performer, this immersive course offers an exciting opportunity to discover a completely different side of acting.

Whether you are beginning to think seriously about drama school, looking to challenge yourself or simply curious to discover a new way of training, this intensive will build your confidence, develop your craft and give you a genuine taste of life as a drama school student.
