ACTING CLASSES

 

Wednesdays during term time

Gemco runs three youth groups for school-aged children and young people - from Prep to Year 12. All our groups are taught by volunteer leaders who encourage students to have a go, learn new skills, make new friends - and have fun while they do it!

Our youth groups are very inexpensive to attend at the low cost of $50 per student per term (an average of $5 per session). There is also an annual $10 membership fee which covers your child with insurance and gives you access to discount venue hire.

If you're interested in joining one of our groups, please come to the first Wednesday session of a new term, from Term 1 to Term 3, to enrol. Our end of year shows give students a wonderful opportunity to demonstrate their skills live on stage. Because Term 4 is dedicated to our end of year show, we can't take on new students at this time.

If you would like more information about our youth groups, please email us at gemcoplayers@gmail.com
