Well what can I say.. Theatre Train Wrexham has been phenomenal for my son’s self confidence, from an early age he has wanted to be involved with dancing and singing and I took him to many local dance classes. It was only until I took him to TheatreTrain Wrexham that I saw him flourish, he feels part of the team and always treated with respect and kindness and he is encouraged to be who he wants to be. I can’t thank Theatre Train enough for the difference they have made to Cornelius. Forever grateful.

My daughter has been attending Theatretrain, Loughton for three years and she absolutely LOVES it! Under the current Director, Jack Navin, the group have gone from strength to strength with the latest most amazing show at the Royal Albert Hall, it was SPECTACULAR! My daughter has gained so much confidence, from being shy and quiet and has now chosen to do drama as one of her A’levels with her goal to perform on the West End Stage! Theatretrain Loughton offers a mix of singing, dancing and acting inspiring young people to aim high and reach for their dreams. I highly recommend Theatretrain for any budding performers!

My daughter attended Theatretrain Wrexham from the age of 6-18, and I can’t praise them enough. They gave her confidence, developed her skills and provided her with a safe, comforting and yet exciting place to be, which was particularly important during the teenage years.
She was able to complete her time there by performing at the Royal Albert Hall (for the 2nd time) and is now off to study Musical Theatre.
There have been many different teachers over the 12 years, but under Steve’s leadership and direction, they have all had a positive impact on the children.

Wow, theatre train Torbay has been absolutely amazing for my daughter. It's been so much fun and given her the chance to do things she has dreamt about. Led by Julia, who is really invested in ensuring everyone comes along for an incredible journey.

Absolutely incredible inclusive group @ theatretrain Torbay. My son has complex sen needs and they have been so welcoming and kind. They've just been on a long rehearsal trip and the care & consideration they gave to him was unmatched. They make every child feel like they are important as an individual, not just as a group. It really is like a family. I haven't got the words to explain how grateful I am to all the staff. The self confidence they have helped him gain is wonderful to see.

Our daughter attends Theatretrain Bristol on a Saturday and tells us that eM is a great singing coach and Will a very amusing Choreographer. She has a great time with them, all the crew and fellow Theatretrainers. Thanks to Sue for making this happen .

My son joining Maldon Theatretrain was one of the best things. Not only has he learned and experienced amazing things it has allowed him to become the person he is today knowing that now he is in college his future career is firmly in Theatre and Performing Arts. TT is not just a theatre school it's a second family. The 8 years of support, kindness and experiences are priceless.
Run by amazing people with amazing teachers. Memories my son will have forever.

My daughter has been attending since she was 10 and is soon to be 18. She considers the TT group as her second family and has enjoyed every moment with them. She has had multiple opportunities to participate in professional workshops and stage performances, including at the Royal Albert Hall. I believe that TT has provided her with everything she needs to pursue her passion for Musical Theatre at university next year. Thank you.

I am a former student of Theatretrain Bristol, and attended for most of my formative years. I cannot stress enough how much it helped me develop as a person. Growing up as a shy individual, Theatretrain helped me grow, through subjects I was actually passionate about. Not only that, but I had the privilege of playing at West End theatres and the o2 Arena.
Whilst I may not be the next Fred Astaire, and that the only thing that will hear my voice are the walls of the shower (you're welcome, world), Bristol Theatretrain will always mean the world to me. Helping to boost my confidence and make me who I am, and I do not exaggerate that. I still credit it to this day, especially now I have friends with young ones. Sue and the plethora of teachers (all of whom were fantastic) have made a lasting impression on me. If your kids are looking for the best in performing arts training...look no further.
