Hello and welcome to Drama Kids South Leeds!
I’m David Wilson, Principal of Drama Kids South Leeds, and I’m thrilled to have opened our first studio here in September 2025. As someone who grew up in South Leeds, it’s a real privilege to bring Drama Kids to the community I know and love.
My passion for drama began in childhood and led me to study Drama at the University of Huddersfield. Since 2013, I’ve taught in Leeds primary schools, using drama to spark learning and, most importantly, to build children’s confidence and creativity.
At Drama Kids we believe every child deserves the chance to shine, and I can’t wait to see our first Rothwell students grow into confident, resilient young people as part of our supportive family.

“My daughter attends Drama Kids in St. Helens. Since joining, her confidence has grown and she looks forward to her lesson each week. Her lovely teacher, Andrea, has nothing but praise for her and is leading her into becoming a talented drama student.”Parent – Drama Kids

“In school assemblies and plays, my son was usually relegated to the background. He was bright but lacked the confidence to speak up and be heard. Since being at the academy, he has bloomed and consequently had major parts in each successive school assembly.Thank you so much for instilling in my son the confidence to let his voice be heard and his presence be felt. Such confidence will be invaluable as he grows up and will help to prepare him for every aspect of life.”
