Musical Theatre Classes

At Performing Stars we are passionate about providing children and young people with the best theatrical experience. We offer weekly Musical Theatre classes for children aged 4-12 years, with the opportunity to perform in three performances a year. Our classes are divided into age groups; Ages 4-6 years and Ages 7-12 years. All classes are taught by professional experienced teachers.

Towards the end of each term, all members will get the chance to perform their latest performance on stage. They will have the opportunity to perform in front of their family and friends as their audience!

Whether you're the parent of a child who's struggling with confidence, who loves singing & dancing, or who's keen to have a career in theatre- we are here to help! 

Our classes are friendly, fun and a dynamic place to be. Your child will be encouraged to play a major part in the creative process of contributing ideas and making decisions about their work. Your child's voice is important to us, including the shy and confident alike, we will help you to build their confidence and character for whatever the future holds for them. 

As well as developing a range of acting and performance skills, Performing Stars members will meet new people, build confidence, and above all, have fun!

Arts and Craft Classes

Performing Stars provides weekly art classes that are creative, educational and engaging  for children aged 4-12 years. We believe that art classes are immensely beneficial for children, providing them with a unique platform to explore their creativity and express themselves. 

Through various artistic mediums, such as painting, drawing, and sculpture, children can discover new ways to communicate their thoughts and feelings. This form of expression is vital for emotional development, as it allows them to process experiences and navigate emotions in a safe and supportive environment. 

Our classes contribute to the development of critical cognitive skills. Engaging in artistic activities can enhance problem-solving abilities, as children learn to approach challenges with an open mind, experiment with different techniques, and iterate on their ideas. 

Socially, art classes provide opportunities for collaboration and team work. When the children work on group projects or share their work with peers, they develop communication skills and learn to appreciate different perspectives. Additionally, our classes will help boost your child's self-esteem and confidence. Completing a project or mastering a new technique gives children a sense of accomplishment, and that they can create something meaningful. 

In our classes we focus on different artists work and different themed art projects. The children will be guided through each activity and be given a step-by-step on how to achieve the end result. Each week, the children will collect all of their work into their own Art Portfolio. Once this has been completed, the children will be able to bring these home to cherish all of their hard work! 

From weekly Arts and Crafts classes, crafty parties, workshops, and family events, we offer something for everyone!

“Performing Stars has really helped my daughter with her confidence. She loves drama, but she has always been too shy to speak out loud. I feel this has really given her the confidence she needs, and she has now even auditioned for a main part. She enjoys coming to the classes to connect with new friends, to act and loves dressing up in the costumes!”
