​Nurturing Your Talent

When becoming a performer you will come up against many challenges but we aim to provide a safe environment where we, as professionals, can nurture you and your talent.

We believe in individuality and becoming confident enough to express yourself.

Students at Centre Stage will get the opportunity to learn from our teachers – who had trained at similar establishments and have gone on to perform professionally on stage, in television, film and radio.

We want our students to learn and grow with us, eventually moving onto the best theatre schools and colleges to continue their studies and become professionals themselves – if this is something they desire.

Here at Centre Stage, we believe being on stage is the best way for our students to learn, grow, and achieve confidence as performers.

That is why we aim for our students to take part in two large scale productions per year, and a few smaller ones throughout. All students from as young as 4 are involved in our productions!

Laying Down Key Components

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 through 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.

“CSTA opened up so many new pathways for me and helped me achieve things I could only ever dream about become a reality. The level of training is outstanding and gave me the support I needed to be a diverse performer. I definitely had the best 3 years here, and I can’t wait too see how far everybody comes in the future.” – Naia Callaghan
