Our Acting Training

Manx National Theatre is a theatre project designed to give aspiring Manx performers an opportunity to experience first-hand professionally led theatre at a challenging but appropriate level. MNT is completely FREE of charge and is a Manx registered charity.

Our kids’ theatre classes are the perfect place for young stars to shine! Through fun, high-energy acting games, storytelling, and performance activities, children explore their creativity, grow their confidence, and learn how to work as a team — all while having a blast on (and off) the stage.

Our adult theatre classes are designed for everyone. Through dynamic workshops in acting, voice, movement, and improvisation, you'll build performance skills, boost confidence, and connect with like-minded creatives in a supportive, energising space.

No experience necessary — just bring your curiosity and a willingness to play.

Vita M.

I’ve got two children in the classes and they both absolutely love it! They come home full of stories, confidence, and creativity — it’s honestly the highlight of their week. It’s such a lovely, welcoming space where they’re learning loads and having so much fun

Testimonial

My daughter has absolutely blossomed since joining Manx National Theatre. Her confidence has grown so much. She can’t wait for class every week! It’s amazing to have something this professional and inspiring available for free on the Isle of Man.

Ballet Slippers

Testimonial

Returning to ballet as an adult has been such a gift. The teachers are welcoming and encouraging, and the atmosphere is full of joy and creativity. Manx National Theatre has given me the confidence to dance again and to love every moment of it.
