Imagination Festival

In Speak Up’s 12th Annual Imagination Festival, our students showcase confidence, communication skills and creativity on stage as they present a collection of thrilling theatrical tales! Exploring tension and showcasing our work on posture and breath, this is your chance to see each member of the Speak Up cinematic universe performing their little hearts out on stage!

The Imagination Curriculum

Speak Up’s programs are connected by our Imagination Curriculum which provides a sequential weekly drama education with regular opportunities to perform on stage. Each program is carefully structured around childrens’ social, emotional and developmental needs to ensure our students feel safe and happy but also challenged and excited for the next step.

 

Through positive experiences with literature, poetry and musical theatre our students develop insightful and meaningful perspectives to navigate their world. You will be amazed to sit back and see your child’s growth and learning on stage at the end of every year!

 

From a quick holiday workshop right through to our Ensemble Program, Speak Up focuses on inspiring and challenging the next generation of performers.

  • Our daughter has been doing Speak Up for the last two years. She has grown so much in confidence and self worth and looks forward to her class every week and her performances throughout the year. The teachers are kind, nurturing and supportive and I cannot recommend Speak Up enough for your children. We are so happy we took the plunge and enrolled our daughter in Speech and Drama classes.

  • I need to thank you again for Speak Up, it has been life-changing for me and without it I wouldn’t be the person I am today. Just being able to put your hand up in class and not be afraid to speak up or get it wrong is thrilling!
