Weekend Drama

Saturday's are great Drama days at our Academy. We have 2 studios running on a Saturday-our first studio kicks off in Berario near Northcliff at 9am. We run a class for 5-8year olds and 9-12year olds; Teacher Dyane has been teaching at this studio since we launched it a year ago and her classes just keep growing because she's such a lovely drama teacher who understands what our program is all about. Our other studio runs in Norscot which is near Fourways and Douglasdale! This studio has been running for almost 5 years and it's extremely popular with stents because it has a wonderful get-away-from Joburg feel! Teacher Megan takes these classes and there are 3 groups that run for 5-8year olds, 9-12year olds and 13-18year olds. The Saturday classes are so convenient and for just an hour each weekend your child will be developed for life, a small sacrifice for a giant reward.

Arts Fest 2012

Every year the Helen O'Grady Drama Academy runs their Arts Fest. The activities we line up are always different as we strive to expose the kids to lots of different dramatic art forms , techniques and genres. This year we focused on Greek Theatre and mythology. We explored the way theatre was back in ancient Greece and we created characters too. Besides the many improvisations that the students created, we also made Greek masks, explored contemporary dance, learnt song writing techniques, had fun in a rhythm workshop, and put together a poor theatre production-it was jam-packed. We're planning on running a week long Arts Fest again at the end of August-contact Kerry Holbrook on 0834102940 to book a spot :)
