PRODUCER

David

I've been producing classes with Perform since 2017. I'm an experienced children's theatre actor, having toured major theatres across the UK and internationally. I've played some of the most popular children's characters in TV and literature, including Daddy Pig from Peppa Pig and Elmer the Patchwork Elephant. I love having the opportunity to inspire children and use my theatrical skills to help them develop their confidence as well as have the most fun every single week.

TEACHER

Amy

I've been teaching at Perform since September 2025 after graduating from the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama. I've always loved teaching and working with children, so it has been a real joy to work at Perform and watch young people shine. Other than teaching at Perform, I love seeing shows in the West End and my all time favourite musical is West Side Story!

AREA PARTNER

Jade

I trained in Musical Theatre at Midlands Academy Of Dance and Drama I started teaching at Perform back in 2006, and I still absolutely love it today! It's so rewarding to see every child flourish and grow in confidence term by term. I am also a Perform Area Partner, so every day brings a different job! Outside of Perform, you'll usually find me at a football pitch or scooter park watching my children play. I also enjoy reformer Pilates and trips to the theatre.

My daughter has really enjoyed the classes, has taken to the teachers really quickly and is excited to see them each week. She is regularly singing the songs throughout the week and telling me about the games that she's played.
