TOP HAT students in stages 2, 3 and 4 attend for 3 hours per week, where they study an hour each of dramatic arts, voice coaching and dance technique. All lessons are taught by qualified, experienced professionals. TOP HAT is far more than just a stage school, it is a meeting place where children and teenagers aged 6 – 17 can meet every week and socialise together whilst discovering new talents, and making new friends with common interests.
|
A range of carefully selected drama games and technique exercises are used to develop self confidence and performance skills. We encourage individual expression and focus on developing the use of their own thoughts and feelings in their work. A variety of script work, improvisations and games will form an integral part of this class, as well as working on end of term presentations, and the summer show.
|
We focus on learning basic Jazz Technique and a variety of modern styles, whilst also being introduced to Tap. Students will learn how to use and shape their bodies, as well as strengthen posture and improve coordination.
|
Students will work on improving their vocal strength and begin to understand the importance of breathing techniques, rhythm and voice work. They will be introduced to a variety of musical scores (Pop, Modern and West End) from our fully trained vocal coaches.
|
It is extremely important that students perform their work in front of a live audience. TOP HAT invite family friends and relatives to watch different presentations, culminating in our large scale Summer Show – a production involving all TOP HAT students.
