The Early Stages classes for children aged 4–6 years run alongside the main Stagecoach schools, where they learn skills in singing, dancing, and drama. The Main Stages classes for ages 6-18 are divided into three age-appropriate groups and focus on developing new skills in each of the complementary musical theatre disciplines. The classes help nurture shy and apprehensive students, while also challenging and channelling those with talent, confidence, and energy.
