What we teach
Thomford Academy runs in Swindon every Saturday, during term time.
Our Thomford Tinies class teaches acting, movement and singing to the ages of 3 to 5. Our main academy is for the ages of 6 to 18, and has classes in Acting, Musical Theatre, and Casting.
The main academy classes are taught in different age groups. We have our Thomford Middies (aged 6-8), our Thomford Juniors (aged 9 to 11) and our Thomford Seniors (aged 12 plus).
As well as our regular classes, we have industry workshops delivered by professionals. We always have a show coming up! The students are also invited to come on our performing arts trips, locally and abroad.

Our shows
Our students perform both in Swindon and across the country for variety and experience. Our students have already performed at the STEAM Museum and the Wyvern Theatre. Future venues include His Majesty’s Theatre in the West End, as well as other theatres in Swindon, Cheltenham and Oxford. Our shows are often new plays written for our students. Our Musical Theatre shows include a range of genres and styles. Always a new venue and a new show around the corner!
Watch this space for performing arts trips and performances abroad.
