The 30 Best Theater school in Coventry

“I've now visited twice to see two different performances. It's a lovely intimate venue.”

“I have 2 daughters that are members of CATS (age 2 & 7) and they both absolutely love their classes. They always come home full of confidence and smiling from ear to ear. The teachers are always understanding & friendly and the whole company is soo well organised, the reminders and updates brilliant. I would highly recommend CATS to anyone looking for dance or theatre type classes for their children.”

“Wow! What more can I say about this AMAZING school? Since my 2 daughters started in September, they absolutely love it and their confidence has thrived! They love coming along every Saturday morning and as soon as Razz has finished for the week, they start counting down the days to the next Saturday. The staff there are so lovely and welcoming to all. The teachers are amazing and so good with all of the kids. It honestly feels like one big family. There are SO many amazing opportunities for all the children as Kimisha the Principal goes above and beyond booking in so many amazing workshops including masterclasses with performers from the West End and the Barbie film! I originally only signed my middle daughter (5) for a trial as she is really big into performing, singing & dancing. Whilst my oldest daughter (7) was waiting for her sister, she overheard how much fun all the other children were having and she asked for her own trial. When they both came out of their trials, they were so happy. It was a no-brainer they were signed up straight away! I'm just so glad they are now a part of the Razz family and I've got my happy girls back! Honestly, you won't regret signing your kids up, it'll be the best decision you make!”

“Theatretrain is an amazing place for your child to gain confidence, perform in great venues like Royal Albert Hall and be part of great community. My daughter has been going for 10 years and it’s been the best experience for her. She has been always so well looked after and supported by the team.”

“My little girl chelsea been coming here for the past year. She loves it. Like one big happy family.”

“My daughter has been at Valentines for a few months, we was made very welcome from the first time by all the teachers, dancers and parents, the teachers are brilliant at getting the best of your child and the other dancers are so supportive, my daughter enjoys going so much and to see how she has progressed in a short time is testament to the teaching available.”

“My daughter has been attending Nouveau for over a year and a half now and she loves it. She started doing a Saturday morning for an hour and now does 1.5hrs in the week and 3 hours on a Saturday. The teachers are amazing with my daughter she is Autistic. She has really come along with her dancing and performing. I feel Nouveau have helped the development of her gross motor skills, co ordination and social skills. My daughter has her first exam this month and is going to perform at Disney Land Paris next year which is so exciting. She has performed in 2 shows which she loved. She loves attending the holiday clubs which are structured and active. I highly recommend Nouveau to any parent to send their child too. Thank you for all you do!”

“I actually really liked it. Bullying happens no matter what school you go to. I can confirm it's definitely worse at RHS than Avon. Some people just like to have a moan.”

“This school for Drama, Dance and music is amazing the drama and music teachers are the most supportive and influential people you will ever meet. They put on amazing shows and the A-level work they do is incredible. They teach students in year 12 things you learn in 3rd year University. This is an amazing school and if you are thinking about sixth form you should defiantly attend!”

“Our little boy had a great time and loved all the teachers and getting to know lots of new friends. The show was the icing on the cake. We were nervous about how he would respond but we need not have been as your teachers handled him brilliantly. The performance was fantastic. So many lines and choreography to learn in a week. The kids were brilliant. Great work.”

“Their performances are incredible and always very thought-provoking”

“Fantastic little theatre! Have been here a few times now to see different productions, and I'm so impressed. The Christmas Carol was amazing! The cast, the costumes, the staging, the specials effects, everything felt like something you would expect in West End! Highly recommend!”

“Such an amazing Christmas grotto experience! My self and my son really enjoyed all the performances, how everyone was involved and Santa was fantastic. The little extras like the making of the reindeer’s food and the chocolate treats were a lovely little extra touch on the experience xxx”

“Came here yesterday 18th to watch this years pantomime Goldilocks and the three bears. Gorgeous little theatre, friendly staff and the show was amazing, very entertaining from start to finish!”

“Fantastic production of Sweeney Todd, the Demon Barber of Fleet Street. The Stephen Sondheim show is a bit out of the normal scope of the Criterion, but they have drawn together some excellent singers and musicians as well as actors. The ingenious staging makes best use of the space. The energy of the cast made me think they’ll probably lose weight during the run - I felt as if I’d lived through the experience by the time the curtain fell! I’d just have liked to see the musicians credited in the programme and brought on to take a bow as they were literally behind the scenes.”

“Great little theatre, great staff and loads of parking”

“First time at the Albany Theatre, what a superb venue. Went to see ELO Encounter who were also brilliant.”

“An amazing company that helps artistic life flourish. Enhances the creativity of young people, helping them to grow and become confident and life loving. Their activities color the world of the children and adulds alike. Keep childhood alive, keep creativity expanding.”

“Kids love it. Made new friends, learned new skills and has given them added confidence. But moreover they love going every Saturday morning. Thank you to your great team!”

“Our daughter has been attending Stagecoach for a while now and the transformation in her has been incredible. Over time we’ve watched her blossom - not only as a performer but also as a confident, self-assured young person. The teaching team are outstanding. They create such a supportive, welcoming environment where every child feels encouraged to give things a go. The balance of singing, dancing and acting has helped her develop a range of skills, but most importantly, it’s given her the confidence to step out of her comfort zone and really shine. She has also attended one of Stagecoach’s summer workshops, which was an amazing experience—packed with creativity, teamwork, and fun. It was wonderful to see her throw herself into it, make new friends and perform with such enthusiasm and pride. Every show and performance has been a joy to watch - not just because of her progress, but because you can see the pride, fun and friendships that have grown along the way. Stagecoach has given her more than just performing skills - it’s given her confidence, resilience and memories she’ll carry with her for life. We’re so grateful to the team and couldn’t recommend Stagecoach highly enough!”
