The K. Boateng Academy of Performing Arts
SUCCESSUL OVERSEAS DRAMA SCHOOL COMES TO THE UK
The K. Boateng Academy of Performing Arts was first established in February 2009 in Accra, Ghana by RADA Graduate Kwaku Boateng Ankomah. The Academy experienced a great amount of success with a number of students graduating straight into TV, Film and Stage roles, as well as working in a number of areas within the Entertainment Industry. For example, recent Ghanaian graduate, Stephanie Baaba Lindsay recently won Vodaphone?s Icons Diva Edition Competition, which landed her a major record deal with one of Ghana?s leading record companies!
Now in 2011, Kwaku Boateng Ankomah is opening a UK branch to train aspiring actors and performers. The Academy will be offering a three year part-time acting course for the over 18?s and a year-long performing arts course for junior actors between the ages of 8-17. The Academy will also offer a range of short courses such as; 12 week acting for screen beginner?s course, traditional African drumming, traditional African dance, one to one acting/audition techniques and The K. Boateng Youth Theatre which will all run within the year.
Kwaku Boateng Ankomah Founder and Artistic Director says,??my aim with The K. Boateng Academy of Performing Arts in Ghana and now in the UK is to provide aspiring actors with good quality training that can provide longevity within the entertainment industry at affordable prices, to bridge the gaps between culture and heritage through performing arts and to give young people a platform to exhibit their talents. I believe the course will instil in young people, confidence and self-esteem, and will be an educational tool to bring to the forefront burning issues related to the youth of today.?
Classes take place every weekend here at Nitro HQ from Saturday 24th September 2011 and from January 7th 2012.
