Chance to win scholarships at theatre arts school


Cue lights . . . cue action . . . cue a big chance to win a scholarship at a leading Carmarthenshire performing arts school.
Stagecoach Theatre Arts Carmarthen is staging its annual scholarship workshops on Saturday, January 22.
Scholarships, which run for a year at Stagecoach, are available for two age groups – 4 to 6 and 7 to 18-year-olds.
“The scholarships are highly valued and offer a fabulous chance for youngsters who love to sing, dance and act,” said Stagecoach Carmarthen principal Liane Davies.
“It’s a great chance for youngsters to win one year’s free tuition with Stagecoach Theatre Arts Carmarthen.
“The workshops are very friendly, but there are only limited spaces available, so anyone interested in taking part should get in touch very quickly. All you need to book a free place on the workshops is energy and enthusiasm.
“Perhaps you have a child who loves to sing, or loves to dance, or loves to act, or loves to do all three! The workshops offer a great route into taking part in the performing arts.”
The workshops on January 22 will be split –
Early stages (4-6 year-olds) 3-5pm.
Main school (7-18 year-olds) 2-5pm.
Stagecoach Theatre Arts Carmarthen has its base at the Model Church in Wales School.
The school opened in May 2009 and became an instant success. The school now attracts students from the three counties of Carmarthenshire, Pembrokeshire and Ceredigion.
One of the highlights of last year was the staging of the hit West End musical Billy Elliot by Stagecoach Theatre Arts Carmarthen.
“We will shortly be announcing our choice of musical for this July. That promises to be another hugely popular event and it means this is an incredibly exciting time to be on board Carmarthen’s Stagecoach,” added Liane Davies.
The principal said:“Our aim is always to nurture and develop 4-18 year-olds to fulfil their potential through dance, drama and singing.
“It’s not all about treading the boards on stage. Early stages classes focus on allowing the children to express themselves, while at the same time building up confidence, poise and self-esteem. Above all, we make sure the experience is fun! The children love it.”
