Big Mouth Theatre are on a mission to change the way children experience drama. While other stage schools all too often focus on competition and performance pressure, Big Mouth do things differently. Their approach is hands-on, inclusive, and all about personal development, helping kids grow into confident, expressive individuals through the magic of theatre.

Unlike traditional children’s drama programmes, Big Mouth have removed the pressure, the competition, and the rigid structure. Instead, they focus on creating a nurturing, welcoming space where every child can thrive and learn skills, which can help them to lead happy, healthy lives.

What really sets Big Mouth Theatre apart is their core philosophy: drama should be fun, supportive, and open to everyone. No auditions, no competing for roles, just a space where children feel safe, seen, and inspired.

The Big Mouth five pillars shape everything they do, from the way they design their sessions to how they support each child’s unique journey:

Confidence – Big Mouth help the children to believe in themselves and their abilities, trust their teammates, accomplish something new, have a go, and celebrate their wins. They actively promote these skills to help build confidence, resilience, and joy.

Creativity – Using games to explore and develop ideas, designing, innovating, and experimenting with storytelling techniques, exploring characters and their backgrounds, creating imagery and dialogue, and enjoying presenting their work. Big Mouth champion the power of these abilities to spark creativity, imagination, and self-expression.

Connection – Helping the children to make new friends in and outside of sessions, making others feel welcome, developing ideas together, collaborating, working as a team, leading a team, and helping others. They encourage these aptitudes to nurture connection, empathy, and teamwork.

Communication – They help the children to practise active listening, show empathy to others, be open to new ideas, understand and use non-verbal communication and body language, present and speak in public, and support those around them. Big Mouth advocate the potential of these skills to build confidence, communication, and empathy.

Celebration – Helping the children to praise effort, recognise their own strengths, appreciate the skills and ideas of those around them, lift each other up with encouragement, and celebrate others with compassion. Big Mouth support the development of these proficiencies to inspire kindness, confidence, and mutual respect.
