Background
We are Dramatherapist Sally Orr and experienced West End Performer Debbie Spellman. We started Drama Queens over 20 years ago to encourage and develop children’s confidence, creativity and performance skills through our unique lessons, workshops and performance opportunities. While we provide training for children who would like a career in the creative arts, we are equally happy to coach those who just want to have fun and learn life skills. As we’ve said for years “it’s all about the journey”. Over the years, we have seen many of our previous students go on to work in the creative industries e.g. as performers, technical staff, writers, directors, costume makers, presenters and film production, including our own children who are now adults.
We provide a friendly environment enabling children to grow into their strengths. Fully supported by our expert pastoral care and tuition, each child is guided through an individual creative process. All of our teachers carry enhanced DBS certificates, are first-aid certified and have full insurance, and we provide licensed chaperones for all performances and workshops.
