Academy Directors Laura & Carly at Londons New Years Day 2020 Parade
Fixation Performing Arts Academy is run by Academy Directors Laura Davitt & Carly Pryke.
Fixation was founded in 2012 by Laura Davitt, who created an artistic company of trained performing arts professionals and youth workers to create opportunities for young people and adults to participate in the performing arts and develop new skills in a safe and collaborative environment.
In 2014 now Academy Director Carly joined the team that Laura had created and together with over 30 years of combined teaching and performing experience, they formed what we now know as Fixation Academy of Performing Arts.
Fixation Academy is a welcoming place for all to flourish, learn and grow. Our team of professionals use their extensive knowledge of the performance industry to provide quality training in disciplines acting, singing, dance, drama and musical theatre for ages 4-18 and adults.
Our aim for each person that comes through our doors is to have fun, build confidence, make new friends, learn new skills and express themselves through the arts. Whether you see the performing arts as a fun hobby or potential career path, Fixation Academy is a place for students to discover and shine. We aim to give each child the skills and training necessary to turn their own dreams into a reality.
At our Academy students benefit from weekly term time classes that work towards annual full-scale productions, in house shows and other public performances such as community festivals and competitions throughout the year. Fixation Academy of Performing Arts also gives students the opportunity to progress through their exam grades with LAMDA and the Royal Academy of Dance.

What people say about us:
Fabulous workshop!
My students had an amazing experience working with Laura and Steph on an LGBT workshop towards a production they are currently working on. All students thoroughly enjoyed themselves especially my Year 7 students who would have experienced this for the first time. They were all engaged, got to work with different people each time (as a mixed year 7&8 Drama Club) and developed their teamwork and effective communication skills. The ladies were really friendly and worked well with the students. Thank you ladies for the great experience and hope to work with you all again soon.
Award Winners
Fixation offers many young people, who would otherwise not have the opportunity to do so, access to positive stimulating projects in their local community.
Awesome party
Laura ran the most incredible party for our daughter.
The two hours flew by with games, dancing and music: the children loved it!
I can not recommend her highly enough and we will certainly booking another Fixation party next year.
