From our home in the iconic 1904 Art School adjacent to Hull Paragon Station, we provide a wide range of classes to around 650 students each week delivered by a professional teaching staff in the fields of dance, acting and musical theatre.

In addition, NAPA’s innovative educational outreach programme supplies training in primary schools across the region reaching over 2000 pupils, enriching their day to day education. We run a full-time level 3 Performing and Production Arts course in collaboration with Wilberforce College and UAL.

One of our key targets is to give people as many opportunities to develop their skills and confidence through live performance as possible. We stage productions all year round in our own 125 seat NAPA theatre as well as larger scale shows at Hull Truck, Hull New Theatre and Hull City Hall.
