We have had two excellent singing lessons at The Performing Arts Academy with Tom and Kate and it was such a wonderful experience to learn from professionals of such a high calibre. They were both fabulous, gave us singing tips, made it fun and even made us sound good! To be able to sing ‘All I ask of you’ from Phantom with a wonderful musical arrangement by a West End Musical Director such as Tom De Keyser was one we thought we would never have the chance to experience. Just brilliant!
