My daughter has been attending classes at Acting Up for over 5 years now and she loves it! Her confidence continues to grow and she really enjoys taking part in regular performances, as well as having fun with the many friends she's made there. The friendly team are always very welcoming and make sure they keep sessions fun for everyone who attends. A great place for children to enjoy themselves and take part in performing arts activities!

Our 6 year old daughter has been attending Acting Up for a couple of months now and thoroughly enjoys it. The 3 hour sessions are excellent value comprising of Acting, Singing and Dancing on Saturdays and are extremely well organised encouraging self confidence for all ages. The staff are very professional ensuring the safety and welfare of the children at all times.
We highly recommend ActingUp.

My daughter has attended Acting Up holiday clubs since she was 4 years old and loves them! We even have to plan our holidays around them so she doesn’t miss them!! Even though she doesn’t attend Acting Up regularly and can only attend the holiday camps, the staff are lovely and truly involve her.

They’ve helped her confidence and the staff make sure everyone is involved - from when she was little and part of the dancing groups to now having more of a main part. She always makes friends during the week which is lovely to see.
The children do other activities alongside the main show rehearsals, including games so there really is something for everyone!

I’d definitely recommend the holiday clubs, great for working parents and childcare and importantly great fun for children!

Acting Up has been such an important part in our daughter's life for so many years. She has developed confidence, self expression and is encouraged to be creative in singing, dancing and acting whilst having lots of fun with friends. The productions are fantastic and a real celebration of all the children's achievements. We appreciate how much the caring and dedicated staff nurture and develop the confidence and talents of everyone regardless of starting points. Acting Up feels like a big family and I would recommend if you would like your child to have fun, make new friendships, engage with the arts and take part in something special (and also give us parents 3 hours to themselves on a Saturday!).

My daughter has attended here for over 1 year now and absolutely loves it! The staff are great with the children and the confidence it has gave my daughter is just incredible. The shows they do are an added bonus as its great to see your children in them and everything they have been taught.

My daughter has been going to Acting Up for the past 6 years, since she was 4 years old. She absolutely loves attending classes and thoroughly enjoys performing in every show. It has massively boosted her confidence, with each new term you can see the progression made. She has also made some great friends. The staff are absolutely brilliant with all the kids, always working super hard behind the scenes putting together fantastic shows. I would highly recommend Acting Up to anyone

My son attends Acting Up & absolutely loves it. Such lovely staff & great kids.
The staff know & understand each individual child so well. The shows are fantastic & I look forward to them so much. We travel 30 minutes to attend every weekend & I'm more than happy to do so.
Highly recommend Acting up if your child loves acting, singing & dancing 😊

Both my daughters have been attending Acting Up since the ages of 3 (now 7 and 5!). They thoroughly enjoy their classes every week and LOVE performing in the regular shows.

Both my girls confidence has grown so much since attending Acting Up. Not only are they having a fantastic time, but I believe they are also developing transferable skills which will no doubt benefit them later in life.
