What it’s like

A summer camp where kids learn to act, sing and dance, building towards a performance over one or two weeks.

This is a summer camp for kids who fancy themselves the next big thing on stage, or just want a week trying it out. The days are built around acting, singing and dancing, all pointing towards putting on a performance rather than a series of disconnected drama games.

You can book a single week for £160, or go the full two weeks for £270, which works out cheaper per day if your child's keen enough to commit. Six is the starting age, so this suits kids who are old enough to take direction and stand in front of an audience without needing a hand held, right up through the school years.

Two weeks is a decent stretch of summer to hand over, and it's worth thinking about whether your six or seven-year-old has the stamina for that before you commit to the longer option. For a slightly older child who's already keen on performing, this is exactly the sort of thing to save the summer for.

Need to know

  • Two-week booking works out cheaper per day than a single week
  • Six is the minimum age, so it's not one for younger siblings to tag along to
  • The camp builds towards a performance, so expect more structure than a drop-in drama session
