The Playhouse Company will once again be running Saturday classes for children, starting on April 1 2000. Replacing the Company's drama-orientated Theatre Cats Club of the past and its dance-specific classes for children, the new classes will integrate all the performing art forms in a fun-filled, all-round programme for children from 6 to 11 years of age.

Pitched at beginner/hobby/extracurricular activity level, the classes will focus on personal development, co-operative activities and in engaging children's imaginations and intellects in a fun, informal performing arts environment. Applications, which close on January 17, are available from Tania Barbour on (031) 369-9467. Space is limited to 30 children.
