The value of performing arts

The performing arts is a wide and vibrant industry including theatre, music, dance, film making and more. With its many facets, performing arts can open up a world of possibility for young people to develop and grow in an environment that is safe and supportive.

Be Confident: Confidence is fundamental to a young person’s development; it enables them to try new things and succeed and fail in a safe environment. Performing arts helps young people build confidence as they practice routines, perform in front of fellow students, family and friends, and receive and act on feedback.

Be Creative: Whether learning a dance routine, acting in a play, or pitching a film idea, the performing arts gives young people an opportunity to use their imagination and express themselves. Flexing their creative muscles allows young people to think outside the box and find creative solutions to problems they encounter.

Be Connected: There are very few industries that rely on teamwork as much as the performing arts. Whether they are rehearsing, performing, or filming, performing arts allows young people to connect with others who share their passion.

The Pauline Quirke Academy of Performing Arts believes that performing arts can have a huge, positive impact on the lives of young people. Every week, students learn new skills and make new friends though three core modules; Comedy & Drama, Film & Television and Musical Theatre.
