Theater school in Edinburgh

“I had an incredible experience in Jake's beginners drama class and Intermediate class! His passion for theater and dedication to his students truly shine through in every lesson. Jake has a unique ability to bring out the best in each participant, whether you're a seasoned actor or just starting out. The class is both challenging and supportive, encouraging creativity and confidence. The atmosphere Jake creates is inclusive and inspiring, making it a joy to be part of. Highly recommend this class to anyone looking to explore or deepen their love for acting!”

“Took a session here as I was passing through. Kind and enthusiastic fellow students, superb instructor with great skill-building exercises. Was sad for it to end, and hope to do another soon.”

“My daughter has been attending ASDS for a year and she absolutely loves it! Having started in the 90 minute Gateway class, she is now in the main school class and has added acro and ballet into the mix there too. The encouragement from all of the teachers is wonderful, and I can't believe how much her confidence has grown. She is so excited to go every week and learn more skills. She has big ambitions to have a stage career when she's older and ASDS is the perfect place for her to learn her craft.”

“My daughter has been attending Southside for almost 5 years now. She has gone from strength to strength adding classes as she goes and she’s yet to come across a class that she doesn’t just adore! The teachers are so friendly and the classes are fun and challenging. My daughter has sat many exams too, they’re always optional but it’s lovely to know she has that option to continue on with them if she wants. My son has just started too and loved it as well. He came bouncing out and excitedly spoke about how much fun he had all day. Couldn’t recommend it enough”

“My little girl has just started over the last few months. She is the shyest wee girl that doesn’t ever want to leave my side and not being able to talk yet probably makes it a bit harder for her. However after about 4 weeks of her crying every time I left her, she now lets go of my hand with no issues. She comes out showing me what she’s learned each class. She spends time in between ballet and musical theatre doing the things she done there. I’ve already noticed more confidence in her in this short time. Miss Amber and the staff/girls at forefront have been amazing and their patience has put trust in me to leave her with them. I’m excited to see where her forefront journey takes her!”

“My 5 year old daughter has been attending Angela Watson’s for two terms and is loving it! She is making friends, learning new skills and is confident and her posture lovely. We enrolled her in the October holiday programme as well which she loved & worked well for us in terms of holiday cover. Highly recommend.”

“Absolutely fantastic I've been 2 no place better!!!”

“A great venue but seating is quite tight for long legs. Staff were super welcoming, helpful and friendly. Joseph with Donny Osmond was the performance we saw. What a spectacular event, although it diverted from the traditional script to allow Donny to show his stage skills and provide numerous comic quips. I love live theatre and The Playhouse lives up to all expectations.”

“Highly recommendable! Functional, clean and inviting atmosphere. Wide range of Indian dishes. Excellent and friendly service. We had an absolutely delicious main cause accompanied by smooth Cobra beer.”

“Visited during the Edinburgh Fringe - fabulous venue.”

“Our kids always leave classes brimming with energy and confidence and loved the summer camp too!”

“I really enjoy the Street Fusion adult dance classes, run by Leah. She always comes up with fun routines to catchy music. Leah’s teaching style is very inclusive, as there is no pressure to get the routine exactly right. We just have fun and I always feel great after the class. The dance studio is nice too - spacious and light. All around good energy and vibes!”

“Little dance school with big potential.”

“First piano lesson, a great experience”

“Witnessed a most beautiful & creative piece of ballet/choreography performed by the students in honour of Morag Alexander`s birthday celebration 21/05/17. A true joy to watch - well done all.”

“A fresh, personal and vibrant approach to vocal coaching. Kira helped me no end. Would absolutely recommend to anyone at any level, whether you're looking to top up existing experience or to find confidence & a voice you never knew you had!”
