Join The Family

Students perform every term with Centre Stage, we produce four full-scale productions a year in a professional theatre because we know the best place for our students to learn about being on the stage is on the stage.

​Testimonials

“I started Centre Stage when it first opened its door at Gravesend, and I loved every minute of it. I’ve been to many Theatre schools since the age of 4 and I can honestly say this was by far the best Theatre Academy I have been to. I was very fortunate to work with all the teachers for a while after I left and they are the most amazing team ever. From the teachers at the Primary schools around the area to the Founders Lydia and Frankie they are truly amazing at what they do! Thank you everyone!” – Ellie Rose Thomas Gravesend Academy Alumni

“I started Centre stage when I was in primary school about 5 or 6 years ago and I was welcomed into the most compassionate friendship group I’ve ever met. Centre stage offers so many amazing opportunities involving everything from local performances to large scale shows in theatres. Centre stage even gave me the confidence to audition for professional work and thanks to the encouragement from the teachers, I am now signed by a professional acting and modelling agency! Centre stage is a second home for me and I can’t wait to take part in all of the productions to come!” – Jade O’Neil Bromley Senior
