naturally more inclined to be confident, have high self-esteem and are able to
communicate better. The Helen O'Grady Drama Academy runs drama classes for
schools throughout the World and has a large following in South Africa. Using an international

Thirty years later the Academy has over 50 000,00 students attending classes each week across the globe!
