18-year-old ex-homeschooler, Hannah-Jade Keppler, along with fellow NCT Senior, Declan Scott, are running Drama and Vocal workshops.

With the older age group, this award-winning duo will look at areas such as characterisation, how to sustain audience belief in a character, how to understand a character and portray a character in a believable way; improv through games such and skits; integration of simple props into a scene will also be shown; voice projections and vocal work using instruments such as keyboards, guitars and ukeleles. Attendees will be given a taster of what it takes to get on a stage and perform.
