New session - The Acting Platform for 12-19 years olds

JK Theatre Arts welcomes a new session to the current timetable: The Acting Platform



The class will run on Friday evenings during term time from 6pm-7.30pm in Burgess Hill.

The session led by theatre practitioner Louise Rigglesford is for new & existing students to gain a skills based approach to drama, using techniques that strive on collaboration and imagination. If you are aged 12-19 and have an instinctive approach to training & building your theatre toolkit, you will find the session will help to encourage self expression through exploring texts in devised drama, working with short & long form improvisation,character exploration, puppetry & physical theatre. Prior acting experience is advantageous although not essential but plenty of enthusiasm for the craft will go a long way.

There will be an open session on Friday 4th April for all those interested- its free and gives you a chance to find out more and meet the team! From Friday 25th April the session will be a regular weekly class for those who have an interest in further pursuing their acting opportunities and adding to their skillset.

Louise Rigglesford has previously worked for the Chichester Festival Theatre, Central School of Speech & Drama & Spare Tyre Theatre Company, London.
