About this activity

Shooting Star Theatre School is Wythenshawe's only purpose-built theatre school, offering performing arts lessons for children aged 3-16 years. Led by Principal Miss Lauren Smeaton, the school provides a welcoming environment where children develop confidence, creativity and performance skills through theatre-based activities.

Classes focus on acting techniques, character work, voice projection and stagecraft, with students working on scenes, monologues and group performances in a supportive setting. Whether your child is a complete beginner or has previous experience, the school creates a space to build friendships whilst learning drama fundamentals.

The studio environment is designed to help every child develop in ways that extend far beyond the stage, with regular performance opportunities including end-of-term showcases.
