Stagecoach Milton Keynes East

Welcome to Stagecoach Performing Arts Milton Keynes East
Where we nurture and develop young potential through singing, acting and dance classes whilst stretching imaginations and building confidence.

Offering classes for 4–18 year olds in singing, acting and dance, Stagecoach Milton Keynes East loves to share our passion for the performing arts. The skills learnt at Stagecoach Milton Keynes East are not only skills in performing arts, but are skills for life, whether it be having the confidence to speak in front of a crowd or working as a team. Our aim is to nurture each child’s potential and help them reach their own personal goals.

At Stagecoach Milton Keynes East, as well as our regular weekly classes, we offer exams in Trinity Guildhall Musical Theatre, RSL and LAMDA. We also welcome external practitioners who deliver exciting workshops in areas such as television presenting and camera work, audition techniques, stage combat, and West End Musical Theatre. We host an annual show and offer students the chance to audition for our Performance Troupe. The troupe performs at local and regional events, and students have the opportunity to perform on a West End stage and at Disneyland Paris.

Weekly Classes

Early Stages (for ages 4-6 yrs)

Stagecoach Early Stages

Early Stages classes run alongside the main Stagecoach schools, where young people learn skills in each of the three Musical Theatre disciplines of singing, dancing & drama, so it is an easy step when it is time to transfer to the next stage. (90 minutes each week).

Main Stages (for ages 6-18 yrs)

Stagecoach Main Stages
Main Stages classes are split in three age appropriate groups, where young people learn new skills in each of the complementary Musical Theatre disciplines of singing, dancing & drama. We nurture the shy and apprehensive, until they find their feet and voice, whilst at the same time developing and channelling those with bundles of talent, confidence and energy. We believe in the potential of every child!
