The news comes at a time when children's mental health and social development is of paramount importance after several years in lockdown.

This follows a variety of amazing performances by Stagecoach schools throughout the year, as many students missed out on performing live in 2020.

The showcase provides the students with a chance to come together for what is set to be another fantastic showcase, building on their creativity, courage and skills that will stay with them for the rest of their lives. 

The Crewe Lyceum is the only Edwardian Theatre in Cheshire East and was first built in 1887. With such rich history in Cheshire, the theatre is now home to local plays, family events, comedies and exhibitions. So it will be a grand occasion for the Congleton young performers to play there.

Stagecoach Performing Arts reported a seven per cent rise in student enrolments since 2020. Their mission is to prove song, dance and acting can be for all students.

Stagecoach aims to make a difference in its students' lives, and many children have gone on to study and work in Performing Arts from blockbuster films to local theatre productions.

Early Stages classes are available for children aged four to six and Main Stages classes take place for six to 18-year-olds every weekend during term time.
