We know that regular public performance opportunities are the bedrock of successful theatre training. Consequently, all of our students will have at least 2, if not 3 opportunities every year to perform at our showcases. These take place in a range of venues such as the classroom, theatres, cinemas or at special events.

‘See as much theatre as possible’ is essential advice for any budding thespian and who doesn’t love a trip to the theatre? We therefore arrange group theatre trips for a range of productions and pass on the discounts we can obtain on large bookings to our students.

Masterclasses give an insight into what it’s like to be a professional and, most importantly offer a chance to ask questions of those who have lived it. Many of our masterclasses are given by former students who are only too happy to return and impart their knowledge and skills to the next generation of professionals.

The school holidays don’t mean the Phoenix fun stops. For example, we run single day events in half-term and full week theatre courses in the summer. Keep an eye on our website to book for one of our extra-curricular activities and make friends and memories that will last a lifetime!

Ou classes will regularly embark on a film-making project and when ‘It’s a wrap!’ we book the local cinema for a red-carpet event you’ll never forget. So, grab some popcorn and a drink and then settle down to see yourself up there on the big screen.
