Tillie- principal
My name is Tillie and I fell in love with musical theatre after seeing my first show at the Bristol Hippodrome. Ever since then I have worked to develop my passion to perform and to pass on my love for the arts.
I began dance classes at the age of 2 and studied ballet, tap, modern, greek and African to a high standard. I then discovered my love for acting at about age 12.
I have been involved in many productions and performances but the most memorable was performing at both the Royal Albert Hall and Wembley Arena in support of Banardos childrens charity, an amazing opportunity.
I trained with The Actors Workshop, a highly accomplished and selective training centre where I worked with professional actors to complete my acting training, following this I studied Theatre Studies at Rose Bruford College of Theatre and Performance.
I have a love for all things Shakespeare, taking trips to the RSC regularly and performing sonnets and monologues at every opportunity. In the past I have worked with young people to dispel the myths surrounding the difficulty of the language, and to prove the relevance of his works to this day.
I grew up assisting in younger students dance classes, and always dreamed of becoming a teacher myself. I reignited this passion for teaching and directing musical theatre when teaching for the Affordable Theatre Company. There is nothing greater than seeing the confidence growing in young performers and giving them an opportunity to shine.
I am so pleased to be able to offer training in the performing arts through TSPA and I am very proud to lead such a fantastic team of students.
I am an I-PATH (International Performing Arts & Theatre) Teacher Member and teach the I-PATH acting and musical theatre and Trinity acting syllabus.

josh- trainee performing arts teacher
Josh is currently training to earn his Diploma in Performing Arts Pedagogy and Principles. Over this two year course, he hopes to expand his knowledge on the teaching of Performing Arts, whilst experiencing a real teaching environment at the TSPA Studios. He was introduced to musical theatre when he was two years old. Having been taken to see Cats the musical, he instantly fell in love! Since then he has been apart of many performances, including the 100th Anniversary of the Bristol Hippodrome, a musical showcase at Disneyland Paris, and he even once performed in Bugsy Malone along with Tillie. After being an extra in an episode of Broadchurch, and being given the opportunity to Direct a short version of A Christmas Carol, he soon realised he enjoys all aspects of what goes on backstage, as much as he enjoys performing. "I’ve loved being apart of Team TSPA since day one, and I’m extremely excited for this next chapter in becoming a performing arts teacher!" |
