It's Friday! 😃 This week has seen the easing of lockdown, some of you have gone back to school & it's ending on World Environment Day 🌍. It seemed appropriate to share with you this lovely reading/ singing of 'The Time We Spring Cleaned The World' by Theatretrain Southampton + Theatretrain Ilford + Theatretrain Braintree.
We would just like to say how proud we are of our amazing pupils across the UK, you are all 🌟stars🌟 ! Your continued ingenuity & creativity has been really impressive & we can't wait until we can hold classes in person again. 🙌

We are constantly blown away by the amazing talents of all our Theatretrain pupils. 🎤

Without further ado, please, enjoy this beautiful heartfelt thank-you, to the NHS. 🌈

I really recommend watching the live stream of Simon McBurney's play 'The Encounter.' Simon is regarded by professionals as one of the best actors and practitioners in the country and the founder of the physical theatre company, Complicite. Their work is world renowned and frequently compared to Frantic Assembly, DV8 and other famous theatre companies. The whole play consists of Simon alone speaking into a microphone at The National Theatre where it was received with 5 stars across the board.
Remember, success in theatre means you must have knowledge of all aspects of the industry, not just musical theatre. If you're studying at A-Level or above you should observe and try and create links between European practitioners such as Antonin Artaud and Pina Bausch as this frequently come up in Drama School audition interviews.
(I don't know what the official age rating is but I do know that many students went to watch the show when it was at The National Theatre.)

If you need a boost this morning just take a look at this!
Written by one of our wonderful students, Libby, who attends Theatretrain Southampton, she performed her heart out to make this video with help from her mum, and it's a cracker!
We are so in awe of our students and the talent they possess, and the originality of the lyrics to reflect the current Covid-19 crisis is just brilliant, with some humour to boot. Well done Libby, what a fantastic job you did!

We are really going to miss Breeze’s Saturday mornings at Theatre train and coming along to watch all the shows. After 7 long years of being an active member it shall take some getting used too. Sadly Theatre Train isn’t what it once was, since the director has taken a less active role and Breeze has decided she no longer wants to be a part of it.
Good luck to all you poppets continuing your Theatre train journey 🎭

Spotlight on... Theatretrain Southampton! Centre Director Karina shares a little bit about her business, and why parents and children love coming here.
✨ Franchise: Southampton
✨ Centre Director: Karina Artun
Natalie Watson - Dance
Will-Ross Jones - Drama
Ross Gooding - Singing
Lois Scott - Minis
Danniella Green - Assistant teacher
Lorna Green - Welfare & Admin
✨ Year opened: 2011
✨ Classes offered: Main school and Minis
✨ Timetable: Saturdays 9.30am-11am - Minis,
10am-1pm - Main school
✨ Tell us a little about your business: I opened in my birth city with a view to move down there but got used to doing the commute so I've been driving the 3 hours each way for 8 years! It's been a challenge to grow the centre from so far away and I have to carefully plan any local community performances/workshops events because I'm so far away but the hard work is finally paying off!
✨ Parking available: Yes plenty of free parking
✨ Favourite thing about your centre: Constantly looking for projects which are out of the ordinary for our students. Exchanges to Malta, performed with Collabro, spent the day filming activities on Royal Caribbean ship. Love all the fun extras!
✨ Why should we come here: High quality local shows with a large investment in costumes, scenery and technical equipment to give the children a truly professional experience in a professional theatre. Attention paid to every single student with performance opportunities shared out as equally as possible between everyone so that they all get to have a go (rather than the same people being chosen every time!) All the teachers are highly trained and experienced.
✨ Any plans/events coming up: Halloween flashmob / local shows in May half term. This year our Senior Group will have their own separate show to work on called 'Out of my Comfort Zone' which has only ever been done by one other group in the UK before.
