NAPA Nottingham Academy of Performing Arts

My 10 year old daughter has been enrolled at NAPA since 2021 and loves it. She has performed in lots of showcases and will be in her first big musical production in May. She has grown in confidence and made some lovely friends. Napa is a really inclusive place and everyone is made to feel welcome. My daughter has additional needs but it’s never been an issue. It’s also great value, compared to some of the drama schools around and costs for shows are kept to a minimum also. My daughter also joined the summer camp last year for a week and had a great time rehearsing a show in 5 days!

My 9 year old daughter joined NAPA in 2021. She really enjoys the lessons and I have seen her grow in confidence. I get amazed when the kids perform at the end of the term to see all the talent and hardwork from the kids and NAPA team. Would certainly recommend this.

The group is so well run and really welcoming and inclusive. My son decided he wanted to try out for a performance. He absolutely loves it and goes by himself without his big brother (for the first time ever). Ellie is really friendly and keeps us updated via a WhatsApp group. Highly recommend!

Our daughter has been coming here (for musical theatre) for a couple of years now and LOVES it. The difference in her confidence is amazing. We love the mix of ages and the ability to showcase their work, audition for productions and perform to wide audiences.

I've been going to NAPA for years now and I love all of it. It's very fun and my confidence has been boosted ever since I joined. Everybody is so welcoming and friendly. There is never a boring moment when I'm there.

Iv been there since before covid and it gave me something to look forward to on returning.
Everyone there is kind and welcoming always coming up with creative ideas, and we all have a fun yet professional time. Every performance feels like such a journey, when coming to the end and our teachers always have amazing ideas for the next one. honestly, there's always something to look forward too and I have no negative thoughts about it, not leaving until they physically throw me out 😁

I love going to Drama it’s made me so much more confident about myself and the other children are so friendly you get a great warm welcome from all the staff that run the classes.i love being in all the brilliant shows we do. I don’t know what I would do on a Saturday morning with out drama to go to, I have so much fun.

Napa is a great place for young actors and actresses to learn in a fun way and enjoy performing with friends the plays always turn out spectacular and the acting teachers are absolutely lovely and kind

Great drama school and very welcoming for all ages. I have been going for many years and it is much less harsh and scary as other ones that I had seen at the time.

This is awful, how the hell do I do street view ?
