Stagecoach Theatre Arts

THE TIMETABLE
Three hours a week divided into: An hour of jazz/modern dance, an hour of drama and an hour of singing, all within a small class (not more than fifteen) of similar age group.

Stagecoach provides a safe and secure environment in 598 theatre schools throughout the UK and Ireland. Children and teenagers learn the major disciplines of performance. Working in small classes led by talented professionals students gain confidence and self-esteem while learning drama, singing and dancing skills. 

THE STAFF
Experienced professionals teach in all the schools. Many are, or were, actors/singers/dancers/directors or choreographers. Most are highly qualified in teaching or performing, and all are carefully chosen for their experience of working with youngsters.

THE PRINCIPAL
Each school of 45 students has its own Principal. He or she is always on hand to lead the staff, manage the youngsters and assist the parents. Most own their own schools.

WHAT ELSE?
Each school shows off its students' work to parents and friends twice a year. Some students work towards exams in their second or subsequent year and gain medals for perseverance and achievement. All parents receive a written report twice a year. Third year students may audition for the Stagecoach National Showcase Production which takes place in London.
