About Us

Penguins are fascinating creatures who glide effortlessly through the water. They are hardworking with a great community spirit, looking after everyone in their huddle. Their adorable waddle makes them stand out from the crowd whilst bringing a smile to your face.  Like penguins we are inclusive and want everyone to go away smiling. 

Penguin Acting and Theatre Productions believe drama has the power to aid focus and memory as well as stretching the imagination. We recognise its ability to develop social, team and communication skills whilst giving us time to switch off from the world. Drama promotes positive mental health and makes us feel happy.

With drama no longer being offered in all local schools, we are more passionate than ever that the arts continue to play an active part in our community. We use drama as a tool to improve confidence and self-esteem whilst having fun. We offer weekly classes in Mirfield and across Kirklees for budding actors from age 7+. Classes combine warm-ups, improvisation, characterisation and script work. We focus on acting for the stage and we always give priority to our regular penguins in our theatre productions before we host open auditions.

We specialise in writing and producing tailor made Theatre in Education workshops, family productions, comedy sketches and murder mysteries.

Our passion for penguins doesn’t stop here, we also adopt our own named Pengi.

We would love to welcome you to our huddle.
