During the Spring Term, the main Stages at Stagecoach Banbury will focus on working on individual class 'mini musicals', allowing students to create, devise, and refine their singing, dancing, and acting skills. The Early Stages classes will be working towards their individual class shows with the theme of 'inside out', exploring emotions such as sadness, joy, disgust, anger, and fear while encouraging creativity and acceptance.
Potential students can book a two-week trial at Stagecoach Banbury, priced at 25 for Early Stages (4–6 yrs, 90 mins) and 50 for Main Stages (7-18 yrs), with a 50% sibling discount for Main Stages. If they decide to enrol for the full term after the trial, the fees paid will be deducted from the total amount.
Stagecoach Banbury is also proud to offer a Performance Troupe, which students can audition for each year. The troupe participates in local, regional, and London events, including performances at prestigious venues like Her Majesty's Adelphi & Shaftesbury Theatres. They have also had the incredible opportunity to perform at Disneyland Paris and will have a chance to do so again soon.
During the summer, Stagecoach Banbury conducts a workshop where students can enjoy a full week of singing, dancing, and acting. Non-Stagecoach students are also welcome to join. The workshop aims to build confidence, promote teamwork, and learn songs and dances from a chosen musical. At the end of the week, parents are invited to see the progress made.
It is recommended to book early for the workshop to ensure a spot, as they tend to be in high demand.
