This after-school drama taster is designed especially for children aged 8 to 12 who are curious about acting but may feel shy or nervous about traditional drama classes. The session is relaxed and encourages creativity through games and improvisation, so there’s no need for memorising scripts or auditions.
Led by Nick Gell, a NIDA-trained actor and experienced drama educator, children will enjoy a supportive environment where they can explore storytelling and acting skills in a small group setting. It’s a perfect introduction to drama for young beginners.
Parents can expect their children to come home buzzing with excitement and new creative ideas after this fun and engaging session.
The taster runs for one hour and is scheduled for Tuesday 14 July from 15:30 to 16:30. It previews a five-week Term 3 drama module starting the following Tuesday, 21 July.
The session is suitable for primary school children aged 8 to 12 and focuses on building confidence, imagination, and teamwork through drama games and improvisation exercises.
There is no performance pressure, making it ideal for children who want to try drama in a low-stress environment.
The event takes place at The Place, located at 12 Victoria Street, Lewisham NSW 2049. This venue is easily accessible by public transport and offers a welcoming space for children to explore drama.
Parents can drop off and pick up their children at the venue, which is situated in a safe and family-friendly neighbourhood.
Parking options and directions are available on The Place’s website for those who prefer to drive.
Children should wear comfortable clothing suitable for movement and bring a water bottle to stay hydrated.
No prior drama experience is necessary, and the session is designed to be inclusive and supportive for all skill levels.
The group size is kept small to ensure personalised attention and a positive experience for every child.
The cost for this one-hour drama taster is $30 per child. Booking is essential to secure a place as spots are limited.
This session serves as an introduction to a longer five-week course starting 21 July, which parents can consider enrolling their children in after the taster.
