Since 2012 PQA has brought it's fantastic performing arts experience to Northampton. For young people aged 4-18
Our final West End Performance of Across the Line in London is fast approaching and our Friday Academy are primed and ready to hit the same stage where Phantom of the Opera is performed! Our Saturday Academy are making waves with their end of term showcases and our Poppets are having a blast with our Vocal Power Project!
At PQA Northampton, young creatives can explore so much more than performing 🎭🎬🎶👩🎨🔉
From filmmaking and directing to choreography, set and sound design, we help students discover the many exciting opportunities within the creative industries — building confidence, curiosity and creativity every step of the way.

Building confident, creative young performers every week at PQA Northampton
Summer term is really here! From Foley sound design to rehearsals for our various projects! No better day of the week!
It’s nearly time for another PQA session, and we can’t wait to get back! 🎭✨

The excitement is building, and the performances and showings are getting closer every week!
🎭 Happy Birthday, William Shakespeare! 🎭
Today we celebrate one of the greatest storytellers of all time — the Bard himself! His words, characters, and imagination have shaped theatre and language for over 400 years, and his legacy continues to inspire young performers every day.
Shakespeare invented over 1,700 words in the English language! In honour of his birthday, we’re shining a spotlight on some of the well-known phrases he coined that we still use today.
