Audition success for Witney Performing Arts students
Audition success for WOAPA students
Congratulations Austin & Albie who are about to appear in the role of 'Samuel' in 'Persuasion' at The Oxford Playhouse
Austin has been attending singing, dance & drama classes at WOAPA for the past year. He is thrilled to be performing as 'Samuel' in Jane Austin's 'Persuasion' at the Oxford Playhouse, which will mark his first professional engagement.
Albie has attended WOAPA for the past year in our 'Young Performers' class. He recently graduated into our main school and is about to join our Act 1 class, for 7-9 yrs. This is also Albie's first professional engagement and he is excited to appear on stage at the Oxford Playhouse.
Jane Austen's romantic comedy is riotously reinvented for the twenty-first century with an explosive foam party and a soundtrack of Frank Ocean, Dua Lipa and Cardi B.
Have you ever wanted to be on the stage?
West Oxfordshire Academy of Performing Arts is an independent Theatre School for children aged 4-21 years, which operates at weekends during the standard academic term.
Our classes are led by experienced tutors whose skills in working with young people enable our students to develop at their own pace, and encourage them to reach their true potential.
Providing quality tuition in the three disciplines of Singing, Dance and Drama, our classes ensure that your child receives the individual attention he or she deserves.
We promote a positive environment - where students have fun as they celebrate their individuality and achievements.
Working as part of a team, students are encouraged to be creative and become multi-disciplined, all-round performers.
At WOAPA, we take pride in going that extra mile. We offer fantastic additional opportunities to our students and have assisted our students to appear in local productions, professional stage shows (locally and national tours) in film, television and advertisements.
We regularly invite industry professionals to our school, to provide master-class sessions, giving our students access to work with performers at the top of their game.
Previous students have been successful in gaining places at prestigious drama schools and organisations (Royal Welsh college of Music & Drama, NYMT National Youth Music Theatre, BYMT British Youth Music Theatre, Guildhall school of music, Royal Birmingham Conservatoire, Oxford School of Drama)
We also offer opportunities to qualify for Trinity College 'Arts Awards' in-house - assisted and moderated by our award-winning mentor.
Our students are offered LAMDA exams and we always achieve 100% pass rate.
A large number of our students come to us via recommendation from parents of children already enrolled with us.
