The National Performing Arts School (NPAS) is located in Dublin, Ireland. The school is for students aged from 2 to 22 years old. Courses available include drama, singing and dancing. Every two years a show is performed in the Olympia Theatre. The NPAS is run by Jill Doyle and Eamon Farrell (brother of Colin Farrell). They also run various workshops throughout the year.
Location[]
NPAS is located in 'The Factory', a rehearsal, recording and performance space.[citation needed] It opened 25 years ago[when?] with U2 rehearsing their Rattle and Hum world tour. Other performers, such as Britney Spears to Pink, and The Abbey Theatre to Riverdance have also rehearsed there.[1]
