Our Classes
At Barbican Theatre, our classes are offered under the banner of "Rebels." We provide a variety of creative classes designed for both fun and enjoyment, as well as to build skills for a career in the creative industries. These classes are conducted in our main auditorium, studio, or music studio space, and run in 10-week blocks aligned with school term times.
Our ethos emphasizes putting the creativity of young people at the forefront of our Rebels program. All classes are led by industry professionals who are passionate about nurturing talent.
We currently have 5 different regular Rebels classes on offer:
- Music
- Music Production
- Performance
- Short Courses
