Every Saturday, PQA Selby offers performing arts classes for children, located at Selby High School, covering comedy, drama, film and musical theatre.
We are passionate about delivering first-class performing arts sessions giving children the space to learn new skills, make friends, build self-belief, all in a safe and welcoming environment while they explore the world of performing arts. At PQA Selby, our weekly sessions include Comedy & Drama, Musical Theatre and Film & Television for children and young people aged 4-18. 
The best part, there is no need to pick just one class, PQA's weekly three-hour sessions explore:
• Comedy & Drama class: your child will learn creative play, Improv and scriptwriting
• Musical Theatre class: your child will learn to sing, dance and act for theatre
• Film & Television class: your child will start to storyboard, screenwrite, film and act for television
Led by Principal Sara and a talented team of teachers, we're passionate about what we do, and we strongly believe that the important life skills your child gains at PQA - like confidence, resilience and communication - will stick with them throughout life!

As an actor, director, writer, and producer, I've had the privilege of working on some truly incredible projects. One of my proudest achievements is founding my own theatre company, which tours the UK with our innovative sensory performances for babies - we use a giant inflatable sensory pod to create an immersive and captivating experience. It's been so rewarding to bring the magic of live theatre to the littlest audience members.
