Welcome to Wonderland Stage School
We offer weekly dance and drama classes for ages 4-18 in Stroud.
Celebrating creativity and individuality, we endeavour to support children and young people to fulfil their creative potential in a welcoming and nurturing environment.
Main School is for ages 7-18 and is split into two age groups. Each week Main School students will have a 1.5hr drama session and a 1.5hr dance session.
In drama we will be exploring a range of dramatic techniques such as improvisation, character development, script writing, monologues and duologues, physical theatre and devising. The students will work together towards a showcase at the end of term, improving their performance skills and confidence on stage.
Main School dance sessions will focus on a different theme each term, whether that’s a particular style, telling a story through dance or dancing to music from popular musicals. The students will learn fun and energetic routines using powerful dance styles within the urban industry. Whilst learning the choreography they will also gain new dance skills and build confidence in their sessions. There might even be a dance battle or two!
Dance Squad is open to anyone in our Main School who wants extra performance opportunities throughout the year.
The class will develop the students’ strength, flexibility and coordination. It will also improve their stamina, confidence and dance technique. The students will be taught high energy routines in urban styles such as Hip Hop, Commercial, Breaking and Street dance and perfect their technique ready to perform at various events throughout the year.
We believe gaining more experience performing in front of an audience at different locations can really boost young people’s confidence, challenges them, and develops a supportive environment where teamwork is key.
Little Wonders is our youngest group for ages 4-6.
During their weekly sessions we will have lots of fun through games, dance, drama and singing. We’ll play with costumes, props, music and movement in a space where they can let their imagination and creativity go wild.
We feel it’s important for our youngest students to have the opportunity to perform too, and we love showing parents, grandparents, friends and family what they’ve been working on.
