A DRAMA school which has grown from four to 5,000 children in 15 years is opening in Haywards Heath.

Perform use drama, dance and singing workshops to bring out children’s potential.

Classes are kept small to ensure individual attention by experienced actors and teachers.

Perform works exclusively with four-12-year-old children and will focus on confidence, communication, co-ordination and concentration.

Principal Lucy Quick said: “We are incredibly excited about opening in Haywards Heath. “We have a fantastic venue and have found some brilliant local people to lead the workshops.”

Classes will run on Saturdays at The Clair Hall on Perrymount Road at 9.30am-11am for four to seven-year-olds and 11.15am-12.45pm for seven to 12 year olds.
