“Established in 2013, Northern Lights Drama is a highly respected independent theatre school for children 3 – 18 years based in East Yorkshire. We use our professional training and experience to provide high quality teaching and support to local talent across the region.
We do not restrict entry through audition as we see our role as developing everyone, irrespective of whether they wish to pursue a professional career or not; our training can help develop a young person’s confidence and interpersonal skills in addition to acting, dance and singing ability. Those who progress towards professional work in theatre, film and television will be prepared for auditions and a career within the industry. Our classes are designed to aid and develop self esteem and the life skills needed to enable pupils to realise their full potential and flourish.
At Northern Lights we praise and applaud all achievements, whether this is a pupil performing in front of a class for the first time or landing their first professional acting job. We strive to deliver contemporary and relevant classes for each age group that we teach, with a focus on exploring new skills and techniques whilst encouraging individual expression. Fun and enjoyment are at the heart of all that we do and our inclusive ethos has allowed us to grow the school with over 300 pupils attending our classes on a weekly basis”.
