A guru is not somebody who thinks they have it all figured out. A guru is someone who is so aligned with their path, practice and existence that simply being in their presence allows you to unlock new levels of awareness that can help you guide your own life.”

It’s about kindness. The way you treat others is the legacy that lasts.

Drama training shows us that education through the arts is not a luxury. It is a necessity.

#actingtips #dramaguru #actorsky #TheatreSky
A Drama class should never stop being a thing. Like if right after our lunch we all got to spend an hour, kick off our shoes, and act out ridiculous improv scenes while somebody’s eccentric, slightly theatrical auntie tells us how brave and expressive we are, I think we’d all be in a better place.
Drama Guru training enriches more than the individual. It reinforces the wider curriculum and deepens understanding across subjects.

What if I told you most children’s creativity vanishes before they even leave primary school?

Have a watch and let me know your thoughts 🤔

Characters are not puzzles to solve, they are people to understand.
“Seek first to understand, then to be understood.”
~ Stephen R. Covey

Drama isn’t just about acting, it’s about empathy. 🎭
When kids step into another character’s world, they learn to see through someone else’s eyes and feel what they feel. That’s where compassion grows. 💛

Drama doesn’t just build performers. It builds good humans.

It’s about reminding ourselves that we’re never alone, that joy is healing, and that little moments of connection can make a big difference.

Film acting is the art of doing almost nothing, but meaning everything.
“The most honest form of filmmaking is to make a film for yourself.”
~ Peter Jackson

I can no other answer make but thanks,
And thanks, and ever thanks.
Did think it didn’t feel right, apologies… So in summary:
1. Not Shakespeare.
2. Often attributed to Guillaume Apollinaire, but with uncertain authenticity.
3. Most likely a modern anonymous poem that gained popularity online.
Back in the edit suite today working on The Time Capsule from the Future.

Over 20 years of making leavers’ films and this one really got us. The pupils brought honesty, humour and so much courage.

Can’t wait to watch it with them at the end of term.

To every soul who bought a ticket, clapped a little too hard, shared a laugh or a tear, and championed grassroots theatre in Reading, thank you for supporting the production.

We’re not done. Not even close. Until the next curtain call…

THANK YOU. PLEASE VISIT AGAIN.

Honestly, it matters to me that the actors I coach see me still doing the thing. Not just teaching it, but staying active, putting myself in the work, and pushing myself creatively.
Songer’s a real talent, but also because of the Reading connection.

🎭 It’s OPENING NIGHT and The Man is ready for you.

To everyone who’s already booked, thank you. You’re the reason local, independent theatre can happen. We can’t wait to share this story with you tonight.
