County Clare centre for Stagecoach

The County Clare centre for Stagecoach, part of the world\'s largest network of part time theatre schools for children and teenagers, today officially launched their Ennis Autumn programme. Based at Cois na hAbhna on the Gort Rd, the Clare centre will run fourteen weeks after school on Friday\'s from September 10th to December 10th, three hours a week for 7 to 18 year olds and 90 minutes for 4 to 6 year olds.

Stagecoach Clare principal John Lucey said "We are very excited about the new Ennis term which will end with our musical theatre production of Olivia by Malcolm Sircom at Christmas.  The 21 year old schools, famous for small classes, independent inspections, LAMDA exams and parent reports offer professional training in all three disciplines of drama, dance and singing under one roof, but enthusiasm is all that's needed according to the former Fair City actor. "Parents assume we seek talented young performers but there are no auditions and all boys and girls are welcome to complete a two week trial" he continued. "Stagecoach is a safe space for children and teenagers to take creative risk, make new friends and build confidence which are skills for life and not just for the stage!" 

Classes cost 12 euro per one hour lesson and the new Ennis prospectus is now online or call 091 556274.
