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.

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.

WHAT HAPPENS?
Well…the ‘magic’ comes straight from each participant. How do the cast do it?
All we can say is that everything ( from set, story, content) is developed from the young people themselves.Their individuality, talents and ideas are all inspiration in the creation of an end of week performance. Through careful guidance we highlight the tools required to bring their story to life as they set the pace for rehearsal , individual and group goals.
The 3Theatre team are hand picked, experienced professionals in theatre,music, performance and teaching who guide all students through their ‘Smile!’ journey. All participants have the opportunity to record their journey from the workshop to be submitted for an accredited award.

Claire is one of the best teachers I’ve ever been lucky enough to work with. Incredibly talented as a performer herself and with all of her teaching experience she’s simply the perfect tutor to bring out the best in anyone who wants to succeed creatively, in any of the performance disciplines.

Head Teacher, East Linton SchoolThanks . My youngsters enjoyed it SO much and it meant a lot to them all. For some of them in particular …. it will have boosted their self-esteem hugely. For me, seeing their faces today on the stage was just great, and to watch you working with them as been a privilege. Thank you Claire!
Julia Wilson
Teacher, North Berwick High SchoolYou were brilliant… hopefully there will be further opportunities for more things like this.
Janet Scott
Deputy Head, Teacher Prestonpans PrimaryWhen I first met our workshop leader, I thought she was really nice. She was a good teacher and she taught us well. I thought the rehearsals were going to be difficult, having to learn different parts. I was absent on the day of the first rehearsal so I thought “Oh no! It will be really hard to catch up!”, but I was wrong, it wasn’t hard at all….the event was really good… and I’d love to do it again…
Rebecca M
Performer, Olympic ChoirThe Olympic Torch Relay was really fun, and I would love to do it again but I obviously can’t! I signed up for it because I wanted to get better at performing. Claire was an amazing coach and the workshops were sooooooo much fun!
Jessica E
