Starting this month, Miniver Academy will be running drama classes for children and young people aged 7-18 on Wednesdays at Theatre Deli Sheffield. Whether you’ve acted before or just fancy giving performing a go, this group is fantastic for growing confidence, meeting new friends, and learning theatre-based skills. 

“My goal with Miniver Academy has always been to create a drama group that I myself would have really enjoyed attending as a child,” says Megan Young, group leader and drama teacher at Miniver. I’m very lucky to be doing what I love and sharing my passion for theatre while also seeing students gain confidence and develop as young performers during their time with us.”

Their aim is to introduce the magic of drama to new talents while nurturing the growth of young actors, allowing them to refine their skills and shine on stage. Each class revolves around original short scripts tailored to facilitate learning and performance development. Coupled with drama games and activities, the sessions promise a weekly dose of enjoyment and skill-building.

Classes are taught by qualified theatre-makers with experience at the Edinburgh Fringe, sold-out London shows, and tours across England. Your first week is free, so why not try something new this September? 

Starts Wed 6th Sept at Theatre Deli Sheffield
Ages 7-10: 5pm-6pm
Ages 11-18: 6pm-7pm
Following the free trial week, classes are £5 per 1 hr session
