About Gestalt
Who We Are
Gestalt's Artistic Director, Natalie Jeffs, has been teaching drama from the age of 16 alongside her mother who has been her greatest inspiration. Gestalt was created with a focus on the creative processes of devising and movement seeing the group receiving awards at multiple festivals for their work. Natalie herself has been awarded for her directorial vision and the creation of movement pieces within her productions, so Gestalt really does embody her passion, strengths and creativity in its practice and vision.
Natalie is Head of Drama at a local Bedfordshire school and has been a qualified teacher since 2006.
"Creativity is inventing, experimenting, growing, taking risks, breaking rules, making mistakes and having fun."

Emily joins the team
Emily Thornton - Greet has been choreographing the dances in our annual pantomimes for years and is now working with the drama sessions to widen her skill base and to offer dance sessions on occasions we want to challenge our students further.
Harlington Pantomime rehearsals begin!
Each year the children who are a part of Gestalt Children's Theatre take part in the annual village Pantomime with members of Harlington Performs. This year's production is Peter Pan with our children playing the roles of Fairies, Shadows, Sea Creatures and Lost Children. You can see them acting, singing and dancing their way into the Christmas season.
Harlington Drama is 35 years old!
Previously Harlington Drama Club, Gestalt Theatre is now leading drama in the village for another year with us now reaching our 35th birthday! Thank you to all who continue to support and send their children to work with us.
A call for teenagers 📣
Following Covid, our multi-award winning teenage group had to be disbanded so, if you are between the ages of 13 and 18, please get in touch if you are a hard working creative with a passion for drama. We look forward to hearing from you.
