PQA Carlisle runs performing arts classes on Sundays from Caldew School. Young people aged 6-18 years spend 3 hours learning a variety of performing arts skills across our three modules, Musical Theatre, Comedy & Drama and Film & Television. Children aged 4 & 6 experience our early years introduction to performing arts, Poppets.


Our incredible breadth of classes ensures that every young person finds their 'thing' - whether it's on stage, backstage, in front of a camera or behind it!


There’s so much included in our membership – including masterclasses with industry professionals, showcases, our RSL qualifications and creative feedback. We also provide your child’s first PQA t-shirt for free!
