Auditions are only used to cast individual roles within productions. Audition packs will be sent to all students who wish to audition and an additional audition rehearsal will also take place, allowing children to feel prepared and comfortable to take part. During the day, Children will perform the rehearsed piece in front of a panel of 3-4 
experienced theatre performers. They can be done individually or in small groups. The decisions will be carefully discussed and fedback to the children during the class following the audition dates.

Our uniform is simple and has been carefully selected for easy movement. 

Black leggings, joggers or shorts.

Your Elevate Tshirt, which is provided as part of the membership fee will be required for photo shoots, local performances and community events. Students may also choose to wear these during rehearsals.

Classes are designed for children to participate independently. We encourage confidence building and
 independence.  For our younger members, we'll provide any information about arrival and collection procedures before classes begin. Mini's and Juniors need to be signed in and out by an adult.

Is Elevate inclusive?

Absolutely.

We believe every young person deserves the opportunity to perform.

environment where everyone feels valued and included. Our inclusion policy will be included as part of the welcome pack, please speak to a member of staff, if you wish to discuss your child's requirements.
