3Theatre is a new approach to theatre education and aims to build confidence through the arts, created by Claire Doyle.

With over 20 years of performance and teaching experience, alongside extensive training at the Royal Academy of Music (London) and the Theatre School of Dance and Drama (Edinburgh) Claire has enjoyed a varied career receiving an array of accolades, including the HL Hammond Prize (RAM). In addition to her wide-ranging performance experience, Claire has enjoyed playing a key creative role in a multitude of innovative theatre, film and dance projects worldwide.

Now living in Edinburgh with her young family and regularly leading workshops for youths, Claire has come to appreciate the brilliance and creativity of young minds and the importance of confidence, resilience and positivity in their development.Claire’s wealth of experience and training coupled with her desire to support and encourage young people lead to the creation of 3T – an inclusive social enterprise designed to harness the power of the imagination and to spread the joy of creativity and performance… to all!

The 3Theatre team are hand picked, experienced professionals in theatre,music, performance and teaching who guide all students on their journey. All participants have the opportunity to record  their journey from the workshop to be submitted for an accredited award. Using the arts and the skills developed to reach our goals, the aim is to highlight how these skills can transfer into real life situations and the team work hard to support students to develop the confidence required to use them.

*’Smile!’ Nominated for ‘ Best Holiday Workshops’  in the 2019 Hoop awards.

3Theatre’s private holiday workshops are called ‘Smile!’
These workshop experiences have been rated 5 Stars by participants, parents and industry professionals. 

Smile recognises a brand new approach to theatre. The aim is simple; create a supportive and creative environment in which everyone can realise their potential. Students are given the practical tools and opportunity to explore ideas, gain confidence in their ability and instincts and be inspired to work effectively towards their goals.

3Theatre prides itself on inclusivity and students of all ages, stages and confidence levels are welcomed with a smile.

Smile for Schools/ Project Be

3Theatre believe that the benefits of the arts should be available to everyone, regardless of circumstance. We design funded projects and collaborate cross sector to create opportunities that raise attainment ( in schools) and improve mental and physical health and well-being for all.

This year as part of  ‘The Year of Young People’ we have worked across Scotland with students aged 2-18 years on a variety of projects with incredible outcomes and feedback. If you have an idea or would like to work with us to create something special, please get in touch. We love brainstorming unique and inspirational ideas.
