About

Throughout the year, our students can avail of a variety of voice lessons, speech and drama, mime, improvisation, script reading and various styles of dance.

Not only will the students have the chance to appear in shows, concerts and feiseanna, but selected students will also have the opportunity to perform professional solo recitals and/or share professional recitals open to the public.

All of our teachers are supremely qualified in their own field of expertise, meaning that our Talented Kids can also avail of registered state exams in singing and speech and drama. Not only are the kids learning and performing to audiences, but they are also getting qualifications which they can use in later life!!

The Talented Kids Agency is very successful in getting Film, TV and Radio Work for our students of all ages. Click here to have a look at just some of our Talented Tots, Kids and Teens Successes.
