Yes that is how long we have been serving Drama teachers across the capital and beyond! We are proud that we are still here and still going strong! We are proud that we are run by teachers for teachers – we receive no grant aid and are supported entirely by our membership, our courses and our books. A brilliant tribute to the determination of London’s Drama teachers! Join us and make us even stronger!

We survive because we believe.

We believe in the power of our content and methods to enhance the quality and understanding of life in those we teach.

We believe that education should be inter-active.

We believe what we see and feel - the joy of the pupils as they achieve the recognition of their peers and their own greater self-belief.

The programme we have organized reflects the range of drama activity in this great city, offering theatre workshops from cutting edge and traditional companies from both subsidized and commercial sectors. Teaching workshops represent all phases of drama education and also show awareness of the cultural diversity of London.

Celebrate with us – book a workshop now!
