theatre skills academy
Orpington
"When I was 13 I relocated from Leeds to London to take up a full time
scholarship place at the prestigious Sylvia Young Theatre School, I received
some of the best training and opportunities a young girl could wish for. After
finishing school I was fortunate enough to be chosen for another full time
scholarship place at Millennium Dance 2000 College for 3 years performing arts
training. Even with all this incredible training I still look back fondly at the
small performing arts school I attended one night a week in Leeds : Scala Kids.
I owe a lot of my skills to the training I received there and would look forward
to going to my classes every week without the pressure of taking exams or doing
competitions. I was made to feel like part of the "Scala" family and felt free
to be creative and express my talents. This is how I want the Theatre Skills
Academy to be- a place where kids can come to be creative, build confidence,
feel equal, learn new skills, improve their talents, and have FUN. I look
forward to welcoming you all into the TSA family." Sheney Delaney. All the
teachers at TSA have vast experience as both a professional performer and
teacher and have a lot of knowledge to offer the children. Every lesson will
work on different theatrical skills, whether it be building confidence,
improving co-ordination, developing facial expressions, or performance
technique. The classes run during term times, with holiday courses on offer in
all the main school breaks. Each term will finish with a presentation for family
and friends to come and see how their budding little performers have developed.
Members also have the option to join TSA Children's Agency with the opportunity
to attend professional castings for shows, film, TV and radio.
