 On Wednesdays we have a combined class of 10-16yr olds which we present in Midstream. This class is also under the instruction of the lovely Larisa!!

The Youth Theatre programme, for ages 13-18years, we offer in the Academy is one of self development. Our prime aim is to give students ongoing confidence and skill in verbal communication. We do this through a balanced theatre arts programme covering speech, advanced improvisation, structured small group improvisation, script work, character analysis and production techniques.

From Midrand to Pretoria North there is a Youth Theatre class near you!!

Visit our website - www.helenogrady.co.za for addresses and times of the classes mentioned above...
