At Class Act we work alongside the local community and aim to integrate greater communities through performance, making us successful and unique.

Class Act Theatre School is Blackpool’s most exciting Theatre school. Class Act offers a packed timetable of classes, whilst encouraging participation from all its pupils developing youth led projects that young people want to be a part of and is publicly acclaimed for its life changing benefits by children’s centers and agencies such as Barnardos and Homestart.

Class Act is for everyone. It is not simply for those children who want to pursue an interest in performing arts later in life; it is also a way for all children to develop life skills which they will take with them into adulthood.

Class Act members get to:

  • Work with experienced/qualified theatre professionals
  • Have a say in what they do
  • Be a part of something special

Our doors are open to everyone; to book your place call or email. See our events timetable for dates and times.

Fashion Show-last week for making costumes

Fri, 18/06/2010 - 13:19 — Rachel

Class Act students are turning their hands to a new project, the Fashion Show, which has seen them working very hard over the past weeks to produce a varied collection of marvelous outfits.

As Class Act is a local charity that is used to recycling clothing for their shows, this seemed to be a natural progression for the students to take charge of the outfits – creating some amazing pieces.

With costumes and props at the ready, it was full steam a head and very early on we were delighted to have the "quote of the week" from wonderful Miss Paige " I have the leg warmers but they are in the car!"- interesting, dress rehearsal and yet the stuffs in the car. I did manage to restarin myself from banging my head off the walk as we were only 10 minute into rehearsal, it was going to be along day! Second run through was so much better back stage. Just mics to sort next week and Emily H dont forget there is a step there!! sorry I had to laugh.

Rehearsal at Layton Institute

Thu, 15/04/2010 - 08:50 — Rachel

Having had our first rehearsal at Layton last Saturday gave us chance to sort out lots of little problems. Most of all how do we switch the sound on! After a few hiccups like our lead soloist nearly passing out on hairspray, we manage to have a great rehearsal and we are looking forward to next week full dress rehearsal. Todays job is preparing travel arrangement for the 7ft door and the largest mushroon in the whole wide world! Don't forget tickets on sale so make sure you have reserved you tickets as they are going like hot cakes.

Merry unbirthday!

Sat, 27/03/2010 - 17:44 — Rachel

After an early start rehearsals got off to a good start. The best suprised or not as the case may be was the rendition of Happy unbirthday!
I could tell that hours of secret rehearsal had taken place to get it sounding so good. It was all goingin so well until Jess H did a quote of the day "It doesn't seem that long since we were singing to you for your last birthday" thanks Jess H. I think I must be having two birthdays a year.
Ticket sale went well I can see us selling out before the week is out. -thanks again for all my birthday wishes.
