Welcome to PQA Leicester!

We are a fun and welcoming performing arts school based at The City of Leicester College. Every Saturday our students join us for exciting, hands-on classes in Musical Theatre, Comedy & Drama and Film & TV.

Our sessions are led by inspiring, experienced and caring professionals. We can’t wait to meet you!

Inspiring Young People Every Weekend!.

As proud Principal of PQA Leicester, it’s my aim that students leave our academy each week with a massive smile on their face and bursting with tales from their classes!

We have so many opportunities for our students: as well as our amazing weekly classes, we have regular masterclasses with industry professionals, the chance to perform an original show on a West End stage, cinema screenings of students’ work, and so much more.

If you’re looking for performing arts training or confidence building in a friendly and supportive environment, you’ve come to the right place. We’re excited to welcome you into the PQA Leicester family!
