Big Imagination, Big Fun!

A playful class for kids who love to get dramatic (or just want to give it a try).

Is your child constantly putting on shows in the living room? Or perhaps they are a bit shy and need a safe place to find their voice? Act Up is the perfect starting point for young performers aged 8 to 10.

At Dee's Drama Classes, we believe that drama is about more than just acting; it is about discovering who you are. Each week is packed with games, laughter, and a dash of stage magic. Kids get to explore what makes them unique, try out new ideas, and grow their confidence in a place where being a bit wacky is definitely encouraged.

What Happens in Act Up?

We mix playful activities with real drama know-how so kids get the best of both worlds.

During the term, your child will:

  • Scene Play: Partner up and act out scenes, sometimes with scripts, sometimes by making it up as you go.
  • Invent Crazy Characters: Ever wanted to pretend to be a pirate, a superhero, or someone totally new? Here’s their chance.
  • Let Creativity Shine: We love improv games and storytelling. Kids can unleash their silliest and most creative selves.
  • Learn Cool Showbiz Skills: Without it ever feeling like homework, we introduce basics like song, movement, and understanding simple scripts. It’s all about having a go and seeing what happens!

Best of all, Act Up is about making real-life friends while pretending to be all sorts of characters. Teamwork, giggles, and cheering each other on are all part of the adventure.

"My daughter absolutely loves attending her drama class. She has made friends and her confidence has improved."
