There is a storyteller within each and every one of us. On our Storytelling course, you will explore techniques for creating and performing a variety of stories to audiences. Whether engaging large crowds or intimate gatherings in a personal or performance capacity, we will help you develop your and your own personal style of storytelling.
With our Storytelling Course you will develop confidence in communicating directly with others, and we will encourage you to enjoy the process of creating or adapting a story - discovering the fun in connecting and sharing tales with each other.

All City Academy tutors are experienced professionals from theatre, film/TV and performance industries. So whilst they're training you they may also be rehearsing for a West End show or working on a movie. We like that and we do believe it makes a difference in class.
