Dramaplay is a drama, theatre, and public speaking studio built on one belief: a child who can articulate their thoughts, face an audience without fear, and express themselves with clarity is a child ready for anything.
We don't produce little performers. We build young people who communicate well, think clearly, and feel at home in their own skin.
Every program is built on the Trinity College London Speech and Drama curriculum, and Aparna Gupta personally trains every student — no rotating teachers, no franchise formula.
"Every single child has something worth saying — and every one of them can learn to say it well."
Aparna Gupta is a drama educator and communication coach who trains every Dramaplay student herself — including for Trinity College London examinations.
Her style: equal parts structure and spontaneity. Her belief: confidence isn't something you're born with — it's something you build.
"I've seen the quietest children find their voice. That never gets old."Meet Aparna →
The skills come because children are having fun — not despite it.
We celebrate the child who tries something brave. That's where growth lives.
Clear milestones at every age — you'll notice the difference.
Children at Dramaplay don't just rehearse scripts. They develop a toolkit that serves them far beyond any stage.
Project your voice, organise your thoughts, speak with intention.
Character work, storytelling, and the art of holding an audience.
Safe chances to do brave things. The discomfort shrinks — the courage stays.
Empathy, self-awareness, and naming what you feel.
A screen-free space to create worlds and tell stories.
Graded exams that test real skills, not memorisation.
In the age of screens, children consume more and express less. Dramaplay is the answer: drama and public speaking aren't extras — they're foundational.
"The Trinity curriculum gives this work rigour. Aparna's teaching gives it heart."
You've seen the moment your child clams up in a crowd. You've also seen the moment they're completely, unselfconsciously themselves. What we do here is make that second version available in more rooms.
Curious? Tell me about your child. We'll take it from there.
With warmth,
Aparna Gupta · Founder, Dramaplay
