Stagecoach Sheffield

A very warm welcome from Stagecoach Sheffield. For over 25 years we have been providing quality training in the performing arts for students aged 4-18 years. Our venue offers a safe and secure environment for the students to learn and excel.  We are a happy and thriving school and our high expectations help us to achieve fantastic results whilst at the same time having fun.

At Stagecoach Sheffield we believe in offering as many opportunities as possible. Our students have formed the choir for the professional touring production of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat, they have also appeared in the professional touring productions of Evita, Jesus Christ Superstar and Shrek. They have performed numerous times at the iconic Her Majesty's Theatre and The Shaftesbury Theatre, London. We have also proudly performed at Disneyland Paris. Stagecoach, through its agent, also gives students opportunities to appear in film and television. On a regular basis the students present demonstrations and shows for their family and friends. As well as the performance exposure we also offer LAMDA examinations.

Stagecoach Sheffield are proud to have an extremely strong team of teachers offering a full and rounded education, teaching life skills to build confidence and stretch imaginations through the disciplines of singing, dance and drama.

Early Stages (for ages 4-6 yrs)

Stagecoach Early Stages

Our 90-minute Early Stages classes run alongside the main Stagecoach schools, giving young performers the chance to learn key skills in each of the three musical theatre disciplines of singing, dancing, and acting each week. These fun and engaging sessions build skills and confidence, so it is an easy step when it is time to transfer to the next stage.
 

Main Stages (for ages 6-18 yrs)

Stagecoach Main Stages
Our 3-hour weekly 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, and acting. 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!

 

Further Stages (for ages 15+ yrs)

Our advanced musical theatre sessions give talented students the chance to extend their performance skills.  Through in-depth training and master classes, we help students to hone their skills in singing, dancing and acting.  We also give students the confidence to audition for theatre and vocational drama schools (if that is their goal) and make sure they are well prepared for interviews and auditions.
