Encore Stars Academy

About

Encore Stars Academy is set up to advance the education, confidence and wellbeing of children and young people and adults through the performing arts. We provide accessible training in drama, musical theatre, singing, dance and screen acting for ages 3–18, creating a safe and inclusive environment where young people can develop communication skills, self-belief and creativity. We achieve this by delivering weekly classes, holiday programmes and workshops led by experienced professionals, offering performance opportunities in theatres and community venues, and providing pathways such as LAMDA and audition preparation. We actively work to remove financial and social barriers through subsidised places, flexible payment plans and outreach with local schools and community groups. All income is reinvested into facilities, staffing and opportunities to ensure our activities are for the public benefit and support positive outcomes for young people across South Lanarkshire.
