Home Education Performing Arts with Jesters Theatre Academy

Unlock your child’s creativity with Jesters Theatre Academy’s Home Ed classes! Our Thursday sessions in Newtown offer a vibrant Performing Arts experience, where students explore acting, singing, and dancing. Through fun drama games, engaging singing sessions, and dynamic choreographed routines, children develop confidence, teamwork, and self-expression.

For budding actors, our Tuesday Drama classes in Messing (held every other week) focus solely on acting, giving students the opportunity to dive deeper into character work, improvisation, and storytelling. Each class is designed to nurture individual talents while encouraging creative exploration and collaborative learning.

Join us to inspire your child’s imagination, boost their performance skills, and let them shine on stage—every class is a new adventure in creativity!
