Kells Theatre School enrolments open

Kells Theatre School is now entering its 21st year with very successful workshops and end of year productions. The aim of the school is to introduce children and teens to every aspect of theatre - singing, dance and storytelling and creative writing, mime, voice training and lighting, set design, costume, mask making, props and of course performance.

An experienced team is led by drama tutor John Grant, singing tutor, Kathleen Mc Govern, creative storytelling and writing with Gaye Grant and Helena Sheridan, dance tutor. The school was very proud to publish a book of stories written by the students during the creative class. The students will be given this overall view allowing them to discover for themselves which area of theatre is best suited to their abilities and skills as well as promoting self-confidence. The over-all aim is to provide a knowledge and appreciation of drama and dance and create an opportunity for the students to perform and have an active role in a production.

Aimed at children from six to 16 years, there will be three terms to the year. Applications forms and information are available from John Grant (087) 207 9557.

The closing date for applications forms is Friday 24th September. Classes will commence on Wednesday 6th October at 4pm in the Kells Theatre, with 60 places available.
