Performance Opportunities for Dance & Theatre Schools

“I have been involved with Take the Stage for several years. It is a fun way of giving our pupils the experience of performing on a big stage with proper lights and acoustics. The team are experienced and go out of their way to make every member of the cast feel important and have a great day. From the very first time you, as the principal, enrol your school in the show, right up until the last child is collected after the performance you are kept informed and feel involved. The organisation is great, both on the lead up to the show, during the rehearsals and of course the big day itself.. There is a marked difference between Take the Stage and some other organisations. You get a rehearsal time on the stage, a member of the team comes to your school to teach the children the finale routine, each performer gets a t shirt (which is almost part of the uniform at our school!), the tickets are affordable and the pupils have fun!! From a teacher’s point of view, to be able to take your pupils perform at The Cliffs is a dream. As long as you have the appropriate number of chaperones you don’t have to worry about all the licences, the cost of hiring the venue and budgeting. We hope Amy and her team will continue with Take the Stage for many years to come.”

“As a dancer studio owner, I think it is so important to offer safe performing spaces which nurture dancers whilst building confidence, which is everything that TTS stands for. They not only guide our dancers through the whole day, but teachers and chaperones too. The environment feels so positive that I without a doubt cry every single year (happy tears of course), just through how lucky I feel to have found TTS. There are never any questions left unanswered, no turning up wondering what will happen and never being left alone throughout any of the process. Dance is so magical and brings people together, TTS have captured that and made a show from it. I am yet to find anyone who does events the way TTS do!”
