Born in the East End two years before the outbreak of World War II, life for the Berkoff family was tough, and their home was destroyed in the Blitz. Relief came when his mother took him to New York to live for a while in the Bronx. However, upon returning to London he began to misbehave at school, became involved with violent gangs, and eventually ended up in a horrific remand home for stealing a bicycle. After several years of drifting from one short term job to another, and with no qualifications, he auditioned for drama school, and was granted a scholarship.

DEBUTOTS EARLY YEARS DRAMA
Debutots is a unique blend of interactive storytelling and dramatic play where imaginations soar, communication skills grow and creativity and confidence gently blossom. Taking part in a Debutots class will delight your child and inspire you…that’s not a buggy you’re pushing…it’s a magic carpet!
Baby Story Play is for 6 months – 2 years. It’s all about exploring the magic of stories, sounds and words through play. It’s interactive, exciting and gets YOU communicating with your little ones.
Early Years Drama classes, for 2 – 5 years, take your children into imaginary worlds through story where they can comfortably explore feelings, words, sounds, movement and their relationships with others- a must for raising self-esteem and developing language skills.
Classes at St Peters RC Church Hall, Shoreham resume MONDAY 6th September 10am-11am (6mths – 2yrs) 11am-12pm (2yrs-5yrs)
