about zigzag Speech and Drama classes
ZigZag Theatre’s Speech and Drama classes offer a place your child to learn effective, clear communication that will serve them throughout their life.
The program is designed for young people who want to develop their skills by engaging with a variety of forms including poetry, prose and play extracts in a range of styles from different periods. It enables young people to develop confidence in performing and public speaking.
We will work towards the Gold Coast Eistedfodd which provides opportunities and encouragement for young performers.
Want your child to try before you enrol them? We are convinced they will enjoy it that we offer one free trial class to each new person, in the first three weeks of term. Register below.
