GSPA — the Gospel School for Performing Arts — is the arts division of The Jarrett Foundation, a registered charity. We were built on one simple belief: it is never too late, and everyone deserves their chance in the spotlight.

I know that belief personally. I'm Pearl Jarrett, and I walked into my first acting class at 54. People told me that ship had sailed. It hadn't. Since then I've worked in film, television and commercials all over the world — and now I hold the door open for others who were told the very same thing.

But a dream needs more than encouragement. A production needs a stage. A film needs a camera. A student who can't afford the training needs someone to believe in them. That's where you come in.

What your gift supports

David the Worshipper — an original musical theatre production we're bringing to the stage.

Clocking In — a warm, funny film set in the 1970s, telling the story of our parents' generation.

Our students — talented, willing performers who simply can't afford the training on their own.

Every pound helps

£33 hires a rehearsal room for an hour.

£400 brings in a professional tutor for a day.

£500 commissions an original song.

£2,000 writes a full script.

Whatever you can give helps put a show on stage, a film on screen, and a student in the spotlight.

Make your gift go further

As a UK taxpayer, you can add Gift Aid and every £1 you give becomes £1.25 — at no cost to you.

Thank you for standing with us.

Pearl Jarrett,

Founder, GSPA
