Zoom Call from Pauline Quirke for PQA Ashford students

Lockdown didn’t stop the talented students of PQA Ashford from continuing their performing arts training.

The entire academy moved online where they participated in Musical Theatre classes, worked on radio plays and even made their own films! They also welcomed Head Principal and Founder, Pauline Quirke to the academy via Zoom! Pauline chatted to the kids about the projects they were working on and what else they were up to.

In addition, the academy welcomed some amazing guest speakers including the fantastic Gemma Hunt, best known for presenting the Cbeebies show ‘Swashbuckle’. Other guests included Jo Hawes (Olivier Award winning casting director), Dean Chisnall (West End performer) and Ben Cogan (Casting director).
