Our "Shooting stars"classes are 1 hour 30 minutes of creativity, energy, and confidence- building fun. Designed especially for our youngest performers, these sessions give children the freedom to explore their imagination while gently introducing the foundations of theatre training. Through engaging drama games and call-and-response line learning, students develop speech clarity, listening skills, and expressive storytelling. Basic dance technique is introduced through simple corner work and fun routines — all in a supportive environment with no pressure, just plenty of opportunity to shine. In singing, children learn to follow and sustain a melody line while beginning to explore character and storytelling through song. Every child is encouraged to use their voice with confidence and personality. Throughout the year, students are also introduced to performing for both camera and live audiences, culminating in an annual demonstration that celebrates their growth, teamwork, and confidence — because at Ensemble, every small step is a big achievement. Parents ​/​ guardians agree to sign their young performer up for a full term and this is a rolling sign up that requires a half term (6 week) notice in order to resign their place for the following term or a full terms fee will be due (unless discussed otherwise and agreed in writing by a EA term member).
