Ireland’s longest running Theatre School
With over 65 years experience, we’re proud to be Ireland’s longest running theatre school, offering Speech and Drama Classes in Dublin for children and teenagers aged 4-18.
Our founder was one of Ireland’s foremost theatre teachers, and we’re proud to continue her legacy of excellence to this day. Our tutors are highly qualified and dedicated, and many of them are past pupils of the Betty Ann Norton Theatre School. Since our establishment in 1959, we have collected a rich resource of performance and teaching material that is unparalleled in other facilities. Our classes foster a lifelong love of drama and theatre in our students.
In venues across Dublin
We believe a working space is very important to our classes. Our venues have plenty of space to move about and exceptional acoustics, making them perfect for movement and vocal work.
Our venues are easily accessible by public transport, and have parking on site or nearby. There are a variety of classes available in each location.
See classes available in Rathmines, Dún Laoghaire, Booterstown, Glenageary and Castleknock.
Classes available for children and teenagers aged 4 -18
We lay a strong foundation in technique that people carry with them throughout their lives both on and off the stage. Our classes focus on developing confidence, clear speech, and creativity, and are suitable for beginners and advanced students alike.
Class sizes are kept small to ensure individual attention with our dedicated teachers. Start from as young as 4 and continue all the way up to Speech and Drama Performance or Teaching Diploma courses, with many fun milestones in between. We participate in solo and group competitions throughout the year, and students have the option to take Grade Examinations.
