Who Are We?

Centre Stage Theatre Academy was founded by professional actor Frankie Fitzgerald (Eastenders, Dream Team) and Lydia Fitzgerald in April 2010.Performing Arts Group Dartford

All of our teachers at Centre Stage are young experienced professionals with strong knowledge in their field of teaching, and all members of staff are CRB/DBS checked to work alongside children.

Our students are exceptionally talented and dedicated and shine individually as much as they do working as one.

Since opening in April 2010, Centre Stage Theatre Academy has grown from strength to strength, and we have a growing number of main academies, as well as extracurricular clubs in primary and secondary schools.

Producing four full-scale productions a year we make sure all our students get the chance to shine!

Improvisation lays down the key components to all acting, it gives students the opportunity to create stories and characters of their own and teaches them how to sustain these ideas though their performances. Throughout the term students will take on a number of different challenges whilst devising and producing their own short stories, this class is aimed at raising confidence whilst improving technique, stage awareness, and character development

Script Work gives the students the opportunity to discover different styles and genres of scripts, from soap to sitcom students will work on television scripts and screenplays. They will also study classical and modern playwrights such as Harold Pinter and Shakespeare. The aim is to build the students’ knowledge/understanding of script interpretation and character development. This class is key to improving audition technique.

“What an amazing performance, I was on the edge of my seat the whole time; I love love loved it. The standard was exceptional and the whole cast had the audience in the palm of their hands the whole time. I laugh, cried and had Goosebumps from the very first moment the curtains opened.”
– Gemma O’Brien, Audience Member.
