A Theatre School for children of all ages
in the heart of Wythenshawe since 2015
At Shooting Star Theatre School, we believe performing arts should be for every child — from tiny toddlers discovering movement for the first time, to confident teens chasing big stage dreams.
​
Each of our classes is designed to do more than teach steps or scripts. They spark creativity, build resilience, and nurture friendships that last well beyond the studio. Whether your child bounds into class ready to perform, or takes those first shy steps with curiosity, our caring team will guide them to grow in confidence, skill, and joy.

A CLASS FOR EVERY SPARK,
A PLACE FOR EVERY STAR
Baby Stars Sensory
The very first spark of performing arts! Baby Stars Sensory is a magical six-week journey of lights, textures, gentle music, and themed play designed to support early development and deepen the bond between parent and child.
These classes are calm, welcoming, and filled with smiles — a safe space for you and your little one to explore the world together.
​
Preschool Dance
Our Preschool Dance classes gently introduce little ones to the joy of movement, music and imagination.
With playful routines, storytelling and lots of encouragement, children build confidence, coordination and creativity in a nurturing environment that supports their first steps into the world of performing arts​​.
Tweenie Classes
Our Tweenie programme blends fun with foundation. Children explore dance, drama and musical theatre while developing key skills such as rhythm, expression and teamwork.
These upbeat classes help young performers grow in confidence as they take their next steps in technique, creativity and self-belief.​
