About us
Who are we?
We are a locally run Performing Arts School with high standards and a fantastic reputation in Performing Arts activities for children. We are proud to work closely with our community, and also with our strong team of supporters to continually develop our schools good work; all focused on giving children a stable and positive environment that they can flourish in. Our team is made up with qualified trained/DBS checked professionals. We are very much a 'family' run school, and have a lot of fun together as a team putting on shows for the local youth. We see many of our students graduate to drama/musical theatre schools - but more importantly, all of our students finish their training with a confidence that will support them in life/ their chosen career, regardless of whether it is in Performing Arts - something we pride ourselves on with the work we do with young people.
We perform regularly throughout the year

message from our principal
I opened StageWorks Performing Arts School to give children an opportunity to enjoy something I did as a child; performing. Performing gave me hope during my younger years and I will always be grateful to have had that opportunity.
I firmly believe the Performing Arts is a positive and creative environment that gives children of all ages confidence, self belief and determination - and more importantly, in the early 'informative' years (3/4- 8) - a creativity that helps develop the skills necessary for so much of their young life.
I am highly trained in all kinds of performing arts, fitness & wellbeing programmes and have been choreographing shows since I was 3 years old. I have been fortunate to have performed professionally at many venues over the years. I now use my skills/ management /business processes to ensure StageWorks continues to develop within my community for young people, whilst maintaining the high standard we are known for in the industry.
We are about to present Alice in Wonderland “in the round” at the Eyot Centre, have you got your tickets?
