   My daughter has been going to Chestnuts for some time. It really has a wonderful community feel, and they all work together so well. Headed by Sarah, who is so passionate and caring, this is evident in all that she does. The showcase shows featuring all the children of all capabilities are always really heartwarming and recently to celebrate their anniversary she did an award ceremony where everybody received something. It was wonderful to see the children thrive and feel so special, I’m sure my daughter will attend for many years to come with many happy memories.

   My 6- year-old daughter attends Chestnut Theatre School on Mondays, and it’s been a fantastic for her. From the very first session, the Sarah and her team have been warm, encouraging, and incredibly supportive. Over the weeks, I’ve seen her confidence grow so much — she’s now eager to get up, perform. Most importantly, she absolutely loves going each week. It’s become one of the highlights of her routine. I can’t recommend Chestnut Theatre School enough for any parent looking to nurture their child’s creativity and self-belief.

   My daughter started here in 2021 and her confidence has grown so much since doing so. She has done group classes and now does a 1 to 1 lesson singing with Sarah. Sarah is professional, funny, kind, supportive and very welcoming. My daughter absolutely loves her lesson and we couldn’t be happier with her progress. If you are serious about singing or acting or you just want some fun, then Chestnut is the place to be. I would definitely recommend Chestnut Theatre School.

   Chestnut Theatre School is just fantastic! My daughter has been going for two years, and it's been amazing to see her come out of her shell. She used to be so shy, but now she's much more confident and loves going to her drama classes. The teachers are so kind and really know how to make the kids feel good about themselves. It's not just about acting; it's like a little confidence boost every week! If you have a shy kiddo, I highly recommend giving Chestnut Theatre School a try – it's made a real difference for us!

   Amazing theatre school with a fun, positive, diverse and inclusive ethos. With the most caring and supportive staff My sons have been going to Chestnut Theatre School for 6 years. They absolutely love it. They have so much fun as well as learning a range of drama skills. They have thrived under the support of Sarah and her team who have such a wonderful way of nurturing and supporting young people to bring out the best in them. My boys have grown so much in confidence. The range of activities/games and learning they do with chestnuts keeps them busy and engaged, They have taken part in numerous shows and showcases which they really enjoy. What I really like about chestnuts is that they will always work at the pace of your child. They are not pushy. If your child is shy/and quiet (my youngest one was for the longest time) that's ok there is still a space for them at chestnuts. They wont get lost in the crowd as every child is made to feel like star. And as a mum its really important for me that the clubs my kids go to a not just educational but are fun, positive and supportive. And chestnuts definitely is. 5stars!!

   Both my daughters attend Chestnut's, They absolutely love it!! My youngest attends the musical theatre class and comes out beaming after each session and brimming with confidence! My eldest attends the teen class and was quite nervous prior to her first session! Sarah made her feel completely at ease straight away and she looks forwards to attending each week! Sarah is fabulous!!!!

   Chestnut is brilliant. Sarah and the team are so good with the children. My son is in the teenage class and it's the highlight of his week. He is gaining confidence all the time. Matthew has Asperger but with Sarah's all inclusive approach he doesn't feel separate too the other children. He is excited to start in the new class where he can gain a drama qualification❤
