Young Gaiety

The Young Gaiety Saturday School is the most comprehensive acting course available to young actors in Ireland. The year long programme consists of three ten week terms. The structure of the courses is both flexible and comprehensive, allowing students to participate in anything from a 10 week course to a three year cycle. Within each age group there are three specific courses available.

 Drama Workshop
Have fun, learn drama skills, meet new friends, gain confidence and expand your imagination. These lively group workshops develop team work and improvisation techniques, culminating in a devised showcase at the end of term 3. This course is ideal for students who are only beginning to study drama and who want to build their confidence and creativity.

 Performance Workshop
Learn the mechanics of acting. In the Performance Workshop students develop voice, movement, characterisation, improvisation, ensemble and devising skills. Each term, a specific performance skill will be introduced such as dance, singing, mime or puppetry. This course is ideal who for those students who are serious about developing their acting skills.

The Young Performers Company
