My Daughter started with this Drama company 3 years ago. She has gone from being quiet and forgetting her lines to being very confident, loud, animated performer who had a main role in the end of year production and didn’t forget her lines once. She absolutely loves attending classes and loves Shane and Hannah who are wonderful, fun and encouraging. Highly recommend this Drama company.

This is a great drama school that focuses on building confidence, stage presence and drama techniques. Shane is a fantastic teacher and inspires the students to be independent, take ownership of their learning and also to have fun along the way. I would highly recommend this school to any parent!

My daughter has been at OGrady Drama at Tomaree studio for the past nine years and loves it thoroughly. It has bought her more confidence, bringing her out of her comfort zone and being able to perform in front of audiences with confidence. She loves her weekly drama classes with Shane even through Covid she still did her classes through Zoom. If you or your child have been thinking about joining just do it you won’t be sorry
