Ariel Drama Academy.
Ariel Drama Academy is one of the most highly respected Drama Academy in the Sussex area, established in 1991; Ariel has achieved genuine acclaim and recognition within the theatre industry for our shows and professional approach in producing these productions. As such, Ariel draws upon unparalleled experience in generating memorable creative entertainment for our audiences, by staging primarily modern Musicals, Concerts, and Plays in professional Theatres.
Ariel Drama Academy is an independent Drama Academy for students 5 to 19, dedicated to training young actors in the core fundamental skills required to become an actor. We strive to create a centre of excellence in each of our core disciplines, whilst always maintaining a key sense of fun through learning and a genuine passion for our pupils to thrive. We offer a broad curriculum on the three core Areas; Drama, Dance and Singing. LAMDA tuition is included at no extra cost.
Nigel Harman star of EastEnders and West End star of ‘Three days of Rain’ and the TV hit Hotel Babylon and Shrek the Musical currently running in the Westend is the Companies Patron, ‘The standard of Theatrical Training is second to none, and I am honoured to be Ariel’s Patron, the School sets a shining example of what can be achieved with hard work and dedication’ says Nigel.
Students from our Academy have received a top National lifetime honour for outstanding and selfless contribution to their communities though our work with students with Special needs and we hold the ‘Lady Diana Award for Excellence’ and we are recognised in the industry for our work in this area.
Our students won Billy Elliot Youth Project and along side other Academies performed in the Westend in a very special Gala evening, and to add to our diversity we also provide many of the actors you see at Tully’s Farm at their October Fright Night!
The School opened on the 1st October at Steyning Grammar School and already growing by the week, so a waiting list will be highly likely come the end of the year, this will be the Academy 4th School to open, having locations in Burgess Hill, East Grinstead, Crawley.
They will be offering a FREE taster session for the next 4 weeks, but this must be booked in on number below.
“The quality of the performers we have seen already is of a very standard and have very high hopes for Ariel’s 4th Academy” says Hannah Summers Principle of the Steyning Academy.
The Academy has a strong and successful young Actors section and if you are looking for a name that encapsulates all the things we do – top theatre productions while providing top theatrical training. ‘Ariel’ is the name that springs to mind! We have been producing shows to enhance awareness through Drama, Music, and Media since we started in 1994.
