BRING A FRIEND WEEK
Bring a friend (of the appropriate age) along to the class you are enrolled in. This is a great opportunity for all children who might like to try being ‘dramatic’ (on stage… and maybe in real life, why not?!!) but are not sure what it’s like and what to expect from it.
See you on the stage!
