7 Raring2go! CLUBS AND CLASSES Centrestage is a Sutton Coldfi eld based Speech and Drama school, teaching pupils from 5 - 19 years old. We are a pupil centric school whose main aim is to promote confi dence whilst instilling a passion for performance. We offer 3 different lessons: Speech, Drama, and Acting. SPEECH In today’s world, the ability to speak clearly, confi dently and with appropriate expression is expected and valued more than ever, however as a subject, ‘Speech’ is rarely taught. Students who take Speech lessons with us are offered an opportunity to take examinations run by the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art (LAMDA). These examinations are fully accredited and recognised, and at higher levels they carry UCAS (university entrance) points. We are proud to say that we consistently achieve high results in our LAMDA exams across the board. DRAMAThese classes cover a broad range of drama skills, from improvisation to mime, as well as devising and performing scripts. The central aims are to build confi dence and stimulate imagination and creativity. Students who take Drama lessons with us are offered lots of performance opportunities, from performing on local stages to out and about in our community. In a world where pupils are under increasing pressure from all areas, classes are fun and give students an opportunity to decompress. ACTING Our Acting sessions are skills based classes that aim to push pupils as individual performers. We focus on improving control of body language, facial expressions, voice and instilling empathy. Students who take Acting lessons with us are offered an opportunity to take examinations. We believe that pursuing a passion which brings joy is immensely important in relieving tensions from the lives of pupils. “All three of my children have had such positive experiences at Centrestage – from the opportunity to perform in real theatres to increasing their confi dence, as well as forming strong relationships which have lasted. Centrestage is more than just a drama school, it’s a family.” Saturday 22nd April Is a free taster sessions day. Parent, July 2022
