Drama & Performing Arts in Newcastle

If you're after drama and performing arts classes near Newcastle, there's one place on our radar so far: Marron Theatre Arts, out at Blaydon-on-Tyne. It takes children from age 2 up, runs weekly dance classes across a few different styles, and has a cafe and indoor seating if you'd rather stay and watch than dash off. There's a competitive team for those who fancy going further, plus two school productions a year for anyone who wants a proper stage moment. For toddlers, it's the early classes that make sense, more about moving and joining in than performing. Older children who want a bit more can aim for the competitive team or one of the productions, which give a real goal to work towards. It's a short drive out from central Newcastle rather than a walk, so it's worth building that into your week if you're going regularly.
