Welcome to Strutting Player, Sunderland’s only drama school for children and adults

Strutting Player is headed by Susie Flintham, who brings an extremely high standard in Performing Arts teaching. She trained at Chester, Homerton College Cambridge University, and the Shakespeare Institute, as well as being an Arts Mark partner and a licenced chaperone.

With over 19 years experience of teaching acting, singing, directing, and writing, Strutting Player can offer classes or 1-2-1 to suit your needs, no matter how old you are.

We offer adult acting classes for ages 25 – 99+, as well as classes for children as young as 5. We even go into schools and run workshops around themes or periods of history.

Whether you want a qualification, to improve your stage or screen acting, or learn something new, we can accommodate you.

Most recently, we ran a Community Arts event called “Sunderland Stories”, which brought together all ages and abilities to create a ‘living exhibition’, comprising original writing, performance, art, craft and history.

Tutoring Testimonial

Parent

Susie worked with my son to help him with his English GCSE resit. In four hourly sessions she gave him more help and support than he had received in his entire final year at High School.

Working with Susie gave my son confidence that he’d never had before. She helped him to realise his own potential.

For the first time he had no fear when he turned over the exam paper. The strategies that she had taught him gave him the framework he needed to get through each paper calmly and clearly.

Susie was absolutely brilliant with our son and we will always be grateful to her.
