Behind the Scenes
We believe learning doesn't just take place in the studio but in every aspect of the rehearsals, dressing rooms, tech & dress runs or the shows themselves. Here at PPA we don't cut corners, the finest details of show day are ran as though they were performing in a West End show from sequined costumes to top of the range lighting.
Professional Productions
At PPA performance opportunities are our passion, as
we believe no child can learn to perform with out the valuable stage time needed to be a professional
performer in the future.
