E!Summer 2017 at the Gaiety School of Acting brought an astounding 443 children between the age of 4 and 18 through our doors, and with them fun, colour and a lot of noise... We see a great deal of creativity and activity throughout the year at the school, but summer brings with it an energy like no other, and I for one cannot wait for that unparalleled hum of excitement to return with gusto for 2018!

Once again we have an explosion of cre-ativity on the agenda, with brand new camps themed on children’s favourites including Moana, High School Musical, The Greatest Showman, Paw Patrol and Stranger Things; all of which are sure to delight.

I’m particularly interested in our new Acting for Young Adults programme - a week long course which invites teens to interrogate contemporary Irish Theatre, will see them dissecting and presenting dynamic scenes for showcase, and in-cludes a backstage visit to a city centre theatre before taking their seats for a play. We programme these courses with a view to continuing to inspire young people and encourage their interest in culture, arts and the world around them - something we’ve been doing very successfully for 32 years now.

As always we also have an eclectic pro-gramme of courses for adults running throughout the summer. Our Acting for Beginners course booked out solidly last year - so if you’re interested, don’t hang around! We also see the return of our ever popular Acting for Camera and Stand-Up Comedy courses. New in 2018, The Confidence Edge evening course has been booked out every term, and returns for the summer to instil you with a power and a presence which, have no doubt, have always been there, but which may need the tools to be freed!

As you join us this summer, and indeed within the pages of this brochure and online, you may notice our new look.

As we enter our thirties, we’ve matured, evolved and grown, and with that we’ve been working for the past few years on a new way of communicating GSA’s on-going excellence, professionalism and ethos of confidence and creativity, in a clearer and more decisive fashion.

If you are a new student, we look forward to welcoming you to the school this summer - I have no doubt that you will feel at home, inspired and invigo-rated! If you’re returning once again, welcome back, it’s good to see you!
