35 Years of Summer Showcase

We are celebrating 35 years of Summer Showcase this year. This annual event gives Stagecoach students the opportunity to experience a professional, industry-style production — something truly special and unique.

All Stagecoach students are invited to take part, including those from our international schools. Although auditions for this year have already taken place, you can still come and watch the production and look forward to getting involved next year.

For more information, please contact your Principals.

Summer Showcase 2026: Sister Act

All your prayers have been answered! We are thrilled to announce our 2026 Summer Showcase will be… Sister Act.

Disco Diva Deloris’ life gets flipped upside down when she witnesses a murder. To keep her safe, she must go into hiding the only place she will never be found – a Convent. Little does she know, she is not just going to help the Nuns find their voice, she will also find her own.

Featuring original music by Alan Menken, expect Motown, Soul and Disco!

This year, we will be performing at the iconic New Victoria Theatre in Woking.

Check back here for tickets.
