Matilda
Summer School at Generations Dance Academy
11th–15th August | Ages 6+ | Huntingdon
Looking for something meaningful (and fun) for your child this summer?
At GDA’s Matilda Summer School, they’ll grow in confidence, develop real performing skills, and end the week on stage in a family performance — all in just five days.
✅ Singing, dancing, acting
✅ Builds confidence, creativity & focus
✅ Family-friendly performance on the final day
✅ All levels welcome – no experience needed
💫 “She came home beaming every single day — we were blown away by the final show!”
– GDA Parent
Not Just Another Holiday Club.
This is a high-quality, creative experience that introduces your child to the world of performing arts — all inspired by the magic of Matilda.
Led by qualified professionals in a safe, nurturing environment, this is more than a camp — it’s a stepping stone into something bigger.
Many of our Summer School attendees go on to become full GDA students, finding a true passion in the arts (and a second home in our studio).
Keanna
Keanna is currently living the dream, training at the prestigious Laine Theatre Arts on a full scholarship! Before that, she trained with her super-talented mum and was a full-time student at the iconic Sylvia Young Theatre School.
Over the years, Keanna’s wowed examiners and judges alike—she’s been nominated for multiple scholarships, danced her way through top associate programmes, and even took home the title of DWC Champion!
You might recognise her from the West End stage, where she spent two amazing years in the cast of Matilda—and yes, she’s in the Matilda movie on Netflix too! Her stage credits also include Joseph (alongside Jason Donovan and Sheridan Smith!) and touring the UK with Nativity!
This summer, Keanna can’t wait to bring the magic to Generations, teaching the legendary Matilda routines—get ready to learn from someone who’s danced them on the big stage!
