Debut Theatre School

Début Theatre School was established in 1995 and soon became one of the leading Theatre Schools in Yorkshire. Début has over 400 students taking classes in Dance, Drama, Singing, TV, Stage Techniques, Piano and Music Theory - Début provides something for everyone.

At the Début Theatre School we believe that the single most important skill that children can learn is to communicate with others. Developing their ability as communicators helps our students to learn, to get on with people and to face the challenges ahead, whatever they choose to do when they leave school. And what better way to communicate than through drama, dance, song and music? It is, for many, the lifeblood of education!

The Début Theatre School believes that in order to prosper, young people need to be inspired to learn and fun lessons engage the minds and talents of our students, thus enhancing their learning experiences. Début Theatre School prides itself on offering dynamic classes motivate youngsters - they work collaboratively - their talents recognised and harnessed by excellent, qualified teachers, with passion, commitment, creativity and an abundance of energy! Some students, of course, need more support than others. But whatever faces those who need extra support, our vision and driving force remains the same - for every single young person to reach their full potential and be successful in their chosen field of performing arts.

Principals David Kirk and Jacqui Drake-Sweiss of the Début Theatre School are renowned for their work, both directing and choreographing in theatre. See their biographies for more information.
