Theatre training has many benefits for children and young adults beyond the obvious ones such as improving and broadening their skills and technique and their readiness for live theatre performances. Theatre training includes acting, singing and dance classes.
Theatre training provides an unparalleled platform from which young performers can explore their own creativity in an environment where their creativity is encouraged and celebrated. This relaxed and supportive environment enables many students to tap into their own hidden talents which have never before been given the opportunity of expression. Students reading and presentation skills are often improved as a consequence of their theatre training.
An open and inclusive teaching environment, a world away from the “classroom” helps to build performers confidence over time which cascades down to benefit all areas of their school, family and personal life. During even short periods of attendance students often form strong friendships with staff and pupils alike and that is one of the many factors that keep students returning.
Many of our courses culminate with an end of term theatre performance in front of a live audience of family and friends. This is often the most rewarding part of the process for students (and parents too) as students are able put into action the new skills and techniques they have gained during the course and enjoy the unique “buzz” and sense of achievement that comes from a successful live theatre performance.
Curtain Call Academy is a stage academy based in Essex (UK) for children and young adults. The academy encourages young performers to have fun, be creative and let their talents shine.

Why Outsourcing IT Support is Right for Your Business
For any small/medium sized enterprise (SME) IT is crucial to your day-to-day operations yet it is difficult to justify the expense of a dedicated IT person or persons in order to give you the level of IT support and back-up you require. Even if you did have a dedicated IT person what would happen on days they are ill or on holiday if an emergency were to occur? How would you ensure that person was kept up to date with the latest technology and best practice? How would you evaluate prospective candidate’s knowledge at the interview stage?
For almost all SMEs outsourcing your IT support and IT consultancy is the right option for the business. It allows you to benefit from the same high level of knowledge and expertise that would usually only be reserved for large corporations and multinationals. Without the burden of a full-time staff member’s salary you can often benefit from significant costs savings as well. The flexibility of only paying for the expertise and time you require helps to make your IT budget go further too.
Members of staff come and go but you can retain an IT support agency for as long as you wish. So you benefit from that continuity by having a team who always have an up-to-date knowledge of your business, the challenges you face and the IT systems, software and configuration you already have in place.
While your IT support agency is working on other clients IT systems they might deploy a new hardware or software solution that could solve a similar problem in your organisation. It’s this shared expertise and know-how that you are able to benefit from without having to invest in expensive training programmes and courses were you to consider an in-house IT support person.
The range of services offered by an IT agency is likely to cover every possible need you may have now and in the future, it would be impossible to find a similar breadth of expertise from a single member of staff. Last but not least an IT Support agency is able to offer you complete peace of mind in terms of 24 hours a day 7 days a week support coverage which would be impossible to find in even the most dedicated of staff members.
