Stagecoach Altrincham

Welcome to Stagecoach Altrincham, where quality part-time performing arts training is provided for children and teenagers aged 4–18 years. At Stagecoach Altrincham, our aim is to nurture and develop young potential through singing, acting, and dance classes. We believe in stretching young imaginations and building confidence through the three disciplines of the performing arts.

In our weekly three-hour sessions, children are split into three groups of similar ages and study each discipline for one hour in detail. We teach them to express themselves creatively and effectively while allowing them to learn at their own pace. Our Performing Arts Exams, Weekly Classes, and Holiday Workshops provide opportunities for our students to showcase their talents and progress.

We are extremely proud of our 172 students who recently took part in the 30th Anniversary production of Beauty and the Beast Junior. Their outstanding performance has earned us a Guinness World Record, and we couldn't be more proud of their achievement. Congratulations to all the students who participated!

At Stagecoach Altrincham, your child is in safe hands. Our dedicated team has undergone Enhanced DBS checks to ensure the safety and well-being of our students. We understand the importance of providing a safe environment for children to learn and express themselves.

Whether your child is at the early stages of their performing arts journey or ready to take on more advanced training, our classes cater to their needs. Our Early Stages classes run alongside the main Stagecoach schools, where young people learn skills in singing, dancing, and drama. These 90-minute classes are a great stepping stone for those who are ready to advance to the next stage.

Our Main Stages classes are split into three age-appropriate groups, allowing young people to learn new skills in singing, dancing, and drama. We believe in nurturing every student, whether they are shy and apprehensive or full of talent, confidence, and energy. Our goal is to unlock the potential in every child and help them grow as performers.

In addition to classes, we also offer Stagecoach Parties for birthdays and celebrations. We understand that parents today juggle multiple responsibilities, and we want to make your child's special day stress-free. Let us handle the planning and entertainment while you sit back, relax, and enjoy the celebration. Our parties are themed, so whether your child wants to be a fairy, pirate, or detective, we have a Stagecoach Party for everyone.

Our Principal, Marion Hankin, is an accomplished and experienced musician, dancer, and actress. She has performed at leading local theatres and even with the Royal Shakespeare Company at Stratford. Marion has been with Stagecoach Altrincham for 16 years, and she is passionate about sharing her knowledge and expertise with our students. She leads a fabulous team of teachers who are dedicated to passing on their achievements and talent to our students.

We invite you to join Stagecoach Altrincham and discover the joy of performing arts. Contact us today to enrol or request more information. We can't wait to meet you and help your child unlock their full potential!
