About TPA

TPA Theatre School is not a Franchise. It is a vibrant independent theatre school established in 2009 by Principal, Jemma Carlisle in Gainsborough, Lincolnshire. The school aims to enable young people who have a passion for performing arts to develop their talent through performance in acting, singing and dancing.

TPA is run by experienced and dedicated Theatre professionals who are passionate about what they do and how they do it.

Our students have the opportunity to perform in a number of productions throughout the year including fully staged musicals together with other regular performances and presentations.

We are proud that we are innovative in that many of our musicals and one act productions (which have been critically acclaimed) are written in-house specifically for performance by young people.

Whether students wish to pursue a career in performing arts or simply want to learn new skills, meet new people, build confidence and have a lot of fun along the way we are confident that the best training and performance opportunities are offered by TPA.
