Dancer’s who Act can attend NIDA classes this Summer

One of Australia’s most prestigious drama school’s is hitting the road this summer, offering children, young people and adults in Melbourne a taste of its world-renowned teaching through its summer holiday program. For the first time, NIDA is bringing their classes to Frankston, as well as St Kilda, Abbotsford, and their base in Southbank.

Tricia Ryan, who heads NIDA’s public programs (NIDA Open), encourages everyone, whatever their age or experience, to develop their self-expression and interpersonal skills through a short course. ‘Creative play and drama develops children and young people’s skills in communication, collaboration and problem solving.

‘We draw on inspiration from everyday life, including popular films, musical theatre, computer games, children’s books and comedy.’ Many parents remark upon the new friends their children have made, and how the end-of-course presentations for family and friends give an opportunity to see even shy children shine.

With a range of classes for preparatory school–aged children to adult, expand their world with everything from creative play to specialist VCE masterclasses, screen acting and musical theatre to TV presenting, costume design, writer’s boot camp and more.
