Theatre Tots

Through the magic of song, dance and story telling, Theatre Tots encourages each child to tap into their imagination and build self confidence.  This programme is run at Co. Cork based Pre-Schools and childcare facilities by highly qualified and experienced teachers.  Weekly Theatre Tot classes are also facilitated in our studios in Mallow, Kanturk and Charleville.

Footwork

Our end of year show is in Cork Opera House annually.  It is a magical showcase of our talented and hard working students that we look forward to, and always remember!  In 2020, we held the show online and, although we were all far apart, it brought the whole school together...

Testimonials

Lucy has been attending Centre Stage since the age of 4.  I can’t thank the teachers and staff enough for all they instill in our kids; the talent, confidence & camaraderie inside those doors are so important, and it's a privilege for any child to be part of, and something which they’ll carry with them through life. 

Lisa Punch

My daughter Aoibhe Lilly has attended Centre Stage for the past 5 years. The overall experience has been phenomenal. She has always enjoyed the high standard of classes on offer. Centre Stage offers a caring, nurturing environment, where love of arts is encouraged, in a place where children can dance, act, sing, laugh and have fun, making lifelong friends and memories. In Aoibhes own words 'It's my happy place'!

Eilish O'Leary

My daughter has been attending Centre Stage School for 4 years. She started with Theatre Tots and moved on ward from there. The musical theatre classes have been instrumental in the development of her self-confidence, as well as her great love for music and dance. The teachers and staff include and encourage all children of all abilities, and each child has a chance to shine. I couldn’t recommend Centre Stage School highly enough. Thank you to everyone there for the amazing work you do!
