"I can't believe it. The change in her confidence is amazing!"
BizzKidz provide a safe and stimulating environment allowing children to explore a variety of skills within the Performing Arts
We run Theatre Schools in Hertfordshire that are held on a weekly basis, excluding school holidays
Children aged between 4 and 16 years of age are divided into 3 groups and attend for 2 hours of tutoring each week. During the session each group will alternate between Drama, Dance and Music (combined - musical theatre)
Our Promise...
At BizzKidz, we strive to build confidence and develop group support within all age groups. We believe that our structured sessions offer children a wealth of knowledge and skills that can assist them throughout their lives. No experience is necessary just a desire to have fun!
Our Timetable...
Winter Term (Sept-Jan)
Every year the children will have the opportunity to create and perform a spectacular show in front of family, friends and the general public. This offers the chidlren vital experience that cannot be recreated in a classroom and helps to create a real team ethic and a personal sense of acheivement
Summer Term (Feb-July)
Within our structured workshops the children will have the chance to work with professional artists within the industry and also the opportunity to work towards industry approved examinations in each discipline (LAMDA, BTDA) to ensure that their progression is efficiently monitored
