ACTING CLASSES FOR KIDS – 11-17 YEAR OLDS
About The Classes
Our weekly weekday acting classes for kids aged 11-17 years focus on various aspects of drama in a more structured way. These sessions aim to boost your child’s confidence within a fun environment as well as providing them with a creative outlet to express their own ideas. Our classes look at various types of drama including monologue, comedy, and many more, focusing on the origins of these themes. Our classes are great for encouraging good communication skills which are useful for students when taking their GCSE and A-Level oral examinations and, for our older students, useful for college interviews. Our weekly classes run after school for an hour in Merton Park and Hammersmith.
The Merton Park classes have students from the surrounding areas of Wimbledon, Mitcham, and Merton attending.
The Hammersmith classes have students attending from Fulham and Kensington.
Curriculum
Our weekly classes encompass all three disciplines of performing arts; acting, singing and dancing. Our classes include dances and movement based drama games which help develop co-ordination, core stability and balance. The children also learn songs which help improve confidence and concentration; as well as giving those more shy children within the group the chance to shine as part of an ensemble. Our classes mainly focus on drama-based activities using role-play and storytelling to promote imagination and speaking skills in a fun way.
Themes
Each term our classes have a different theme focusing on different aspects of Drama. Our Spring Term tends to focus on a specific area of drama where children have the opportunity to explore further; previous themes during this term have included Comedy Term and Cabaret Term. Summer Term tends to focus on a general theme such as ‘Fairytales and Fables’ or a more individual theme such as ‘Spotlight Term’ which enables students to work on solo pieces developing their own acting skills. Our Autumn Term classes (Drama Club only) work towards a big end of term production involving all of our classes; previous shows have included ‘Neverland’, ‘Alice in Wonderland’ and ‘A Visit from Mary Poppins’.

ParentReflect Productions has been great at tapping into my son's artistic side and bringing out the best in him. He thoroughly enjoys all his drama classes and loves performing at the end of term shows. All the teachers have been friendly but professional, as well as very supportive.

ParentWe discovered Reflect Productions at the start of the first lockdown. To say that these lessons, as well as the martial arts sister school, we’re the foundations of sanity and joy during those times is an understatement! In less than two years, peppered with lockdowns, isolation and reunions, we have seen the children deliver incredible performances, build beautiful friendship, learn excellent, core transferable skills and distinctions in two sets of LAMDA exams! No other school has managed a smidge of this during this time.
