Bob Mackie said "My philosophy is watch what they do, how they work on stage, how they walk, how they sit... You can't just put a dress on anybody."
Our fabulous designer Sheridan has altered your costumes and we can’t wait for you to fit.
Other costume details follow.
RIP Bob

Now it’s over to you you got this!

📚✨ Happy Roald Dahl Day! ✨📚 Today, we’re celebrating one of the world’s most beloved storytellers, Roald Dahl! From wonderfully weird characters to mischievous adventures and stories that spark the imagination, his work has inspired generations of young readers.

At PQA, we love bringing those stories to life on stage! 🎭

Our exciting project, Roald Dahl’s Twisted Tales, takes the original words and adaptations of Roald Dahl’s much-loved works and gives PQA students the chance to step into his wonderfully imaginative world. Our students also do amazing performances of the theatre show, Matilda!

✨ Did you know performing arts can help children develop skills that last a lifetime?

At PQA, our students do so much more than perform. Through Musical Theatre, Film & Television, and Comedy & Drama, they build confidence, strengthen communication skills, learn the value of teamwork, unlock their creativity, and develop emotional resilience.

From a shy child finding their voice to a confident performer learning professional performing art skills using them in real life opportunities, every session is designed to nurture their abilities, spark imagination, and help young people grow both on and off the stage.

The benefits of performing arts go far beyond the final performance. They're life skills that empower children to thrive in school, friendships, and future opportunities.
