History

ActAble was established in 2010 by actress and educator Sami Jayne.

Sami Jayne has been performing shows for children for the last 4 years; ranging from pantomimes to educational shows. She has taken shows across the United Kingdom for some of the top specialist theatre companies in the field.
The topics have ranged from stranger danger for 4 year olds, to Shakespeare for 16 year olds, but no matter what the age, it's always guaranteed that children's imaginations and abilities are activated by being exposed to quality theatre. When given the chance to get involved in drama, children naturally rise to the challenge.

ActAble provide theatrical opportunities which cater for the individual. All programmes are designed to allow for the growth of essential life skills; primarily co-operation, respect, concentration, imagination and creativity.
