Drama
In drama, whilst building the core skills of theatre, we aim to support our students to be confident and proud citizens of the community. By exploring voice, improvisation, and acting techniques we bring characters to life and step into their worlds. Sessions are built around creative collaboration, helping each young performer grow in confidence to use both on stage and beyond.
Dance
From jazz to commercial to musical theatre, our students experience a vibrant mix of styles while developing strong technique, flexibility, coordination, and posture. Dance helps students find their power, express their individuality, and connect to music through movement. Each session builds physical strength and artistic confidence, encouraging dancers to move with purpose and joy.
Singing
Our fun and engaging singing sessions develop effective exercises in breath control, rhythm, pitch, and projection. Students explore a variety of styles from pop to musical theatre, expanding their vocal range and musicality while building the confidence to sing loud and proud, whether as solo or as part of an ensemble.
Our 90 minute classes ignite imagination through dance, singing, drama and storytelling. Boosting confidence, nurturing creativity and social skills. ...
Jigsaw Youth Theatre is designed for 15–18 year olds who are ready to take their performing arts training to the next level.
Children aged 7–18 attend an exciting three-hour session each week, rotating between one hour of drama, one hour of singing, and one hour of dance each led by a specialist teacher. To help every child thrive, students are grouped by age to ensure the right level of challenge and support. With a maximum of 20 students per class, we create a focused and friendly environment where individual attention is part of the experience. These are drop-off sessions, giving parents a chance to relax while their children grow in confidence and skill, then enjoy seeing the results at end-of-term presentations, shows, and written reports!
Jigsaw runs three 11-week terms each year (Spring, Summer, and Autumn) providing consistent, structured performing arts training. All new families are offered a two-week trial, and if you decide to continue, you’ll have first refusal on that class space for the remainder of the term.
Technique Term:
This term is all about building strong foundations. Through weekly classes, our students explore a wide range of styles and skills in dance, drama, and singing. We focus on developing self-esteem, teamwork, and creativity by prioritising the process over the end product, so that every child feels empowered and involved.
Presentation Term:
Families are invited to a performance in the style of an open class demonstration at the end of the term to see what their children have been working on. With a mix of scripts, character work, and musical pieces, students bring everything together in a relaxed end-of-term showcase. It’s a celebration of their progress, confidence, and imagination.
Show Term:
We use original scripts tailored to include everyone, ensuring each student gets their moment to shine. We don’t do star roles, every part matters, and every child is celebrated. It’s a joyful, inclusive performance that reflects the hard work and creativity of the whole group.
