We explore all kinds of drama, from fun scripts and short duologues to physical theatre, stagecraft, and even making up our own pieces. Everyone gets a chance to try different parts of production and learn together. Our junior members also work towards LAMDA exams and can earn Trinity Arts Awards.

LAMDA

LAMDA (London Academy of Music & Dramatic Art) exams are internationally recognized qualifications in communication, performance, and musical theatre. They assess candidates' abilities in acting, public speaking, verse and prose, and other performance disciplines.

The exams are structured across various grades, from introductory levels to advanced qualifications. They focus on developing confidence, creativity, and communication skills. LAMDA exams are widely taken by students, actors, and professionals to enhance their public speaking and dramatic skills.

Higher-level qualifications, such as the LAMDA Level 3 exams, carry UCAS points, which can contribute to university applications in the UK.
