Welcome to Stagecoach Performing Arts Maidenhead, where Fay and her dedicated team provide high-quality performing arts training for children aged 2 to 19 years. Our mission is to foster and develop creativity while helping students reach their full potential in dance, drama, and singing. With a focus on stretching the imagination, building confidence, and cultivating creative courage, we aim to prepare our students for a lifetime of artistic expression.
In addition to our weekly classes and holiday workshops, our students have the exciting opportunity to participate in full-scale shows and perform at renowned West End and regional events. They also get to go on theatre trips, engage in specialist workshops with West End performers, and pursue qualifications through personalised coaching for LAMDA examinations. Furthermore, our students benefit from a diverse range of professional casting opportunities for both stage and screen, with recent successes including appearances in projects for BBC, Netflix, Disney, and Marvel.
At Stagecoach Maidenhead, we prioritise the safety and well-being of each child. That's why our entire team is Enhanced DBS checked, ensuring a secure environment for your little one to explore and grow.

LAMDA-accredited exams carry great prestige and can even count towards the UCAS points system when applying to universities and colleges.
Our weekly classes cater to different age groups and skill levels. For children aged 2-4, we have our Mini Stages classes, offering 45 minutes of fun and excitement in a safe and nurturing environment.
