We do a range of performances throughout the year, as we want our students to experience a variety of performance types. We perform regularly at events that are usually held in the town centre, such as Halloween and Christmas. Other styles of performance we do are variety, immersive events, plays, pantomime, musicals, revues, shakespearian plays and our yearly showcase.

Students that join the company will get the chance to be in regular performances of all varieties. They also have the chance to perform alongside professional performers and in professionally produced productions. We instill a certain work ethic in all of our students that prepare them for working in a professional environment. We also offer casting opportunities that come up to those students who fit the criteria at the time. Here at Nine Lives we give all of our students a wealth of knowledge from our own experiences in the industry and can always help advise the next steps for students to take on their journey with performing arts.

We ask that all group classes are paid for monthly or termly, whichever suits you better. Private session payments are arranged with the teacher who’s running those sessions. Workshops and Summer Schools should be paid in full by the start date and a deposit is usually required to confirm your place at the time of booking. You can pay via cash, BACS, PayPal (extra charges may apply) or cheque. All options will be shown in your invoices.

Please check the class page of the specific classes you’re interested in for the price. For private sessions please contact us for details.

Not at all. We specialise in teaching all levels and helping grow the confidence and skills of anyone who joins, whether they’re a beginner or advanced.
