history

Simply Theatre Academy was the brain child of Jenna Melling back in 2004, who dreamed of offering theatre education of exceptional quality in Switzerland. Her aim was to bring out the confidence and potential that lies within us all, and to equip children in particular with the many and varied life skills which can be developed through theatre to stand them in good stead them for whatever path life takes them on. The Academy was founded in Geneva with Thomas Grafton (Director of Simply Theatre Productions) in 2005, to both meet and increase the demand for quality English theatrical entertainment and education in Switzerland.

On opening its doors back in 2005 the Academy was an immediate hit with its students. Over the years the Academy has gone from strength to strength with Jenna & Tom still at the helm and their dynamic team of theatre practitioners, offering theatre productions, workshops & courses to children, teens, adults and corporates alike, in several venues across Switzerland.

The Academy Director is Jenna Melling.
