Creative Team

We spend a lot of time recruiting, training and evaluating our wonderful Area Partners, Producers and Teachers and the team at Mansergh Club in St John's Wood are no exception. As at all Perform schools, they have all been hand-picked for being enthusiastic, approachable and, of course, fantastic with children. As a result, you can be confident that your child is in the best of hands. Here are the details of the Creative Team at this venue:

PRODUCER

Aled

I'm from South Wales originally; I came to London to train in musical theatre after receiving a scholarship to train at the Urdang Academy. I adore sharing my expertise with budding new actors and to work on confidence with my children in a fun, safe environment. Outside of Perform, I often sing in concerts with my Welsh language choir "Cor Llundain" and will beat anyone in Mario Kart!

PRODUCER

Callum

I've been producing classes with Perform since 2022. I love using my experience as an actor to inspire and teach children. Every term during show week, I'm amazed by how much their confidence has grown. Outside of Perform, I love writing, playing music and pretty much any sports!

PRODUCER

Georgina

Helping children discover their confidence through drama is one of the most rewarding parts of my job. Drawing on my background as a professional actor, I aim to make every class fun, engaging and inspiring. Seeing each child's progression over time is always a highlight!

TEACHER

Katherine

I started working at Perform in 2016, and I love bringing our the best in my students through fun and laughter. I am a working actor, and have worked for Disneyland Paris and Beaches Resorts as well as regularly performing in the pantomime at the Royal Vauxhall Tavern. It is such a joy to use my skills to build the confidence of my students, and make sure that they feel safe to be their authentic selves!

TEACHER

Kiarah

I have been teaching at Perform since 2026. I love teaching and have been performing ever since I was little. Encouraging my students to learn about themselves and build their confidence through drama is a top priority; the results are always so rewarding to see. When I'm not at Perform, I enjoy singing and playing lots of instruments.

TEACHER

Lauren

I started working with Perform in 2026. I love using my musical theatre experience to teach children not only the skills of performance but encouraging their creativity and developing their confidence. Outside of Perform I love going to the theatre and enjoy sharing that passion with the children.

TEACHER

Lauren

I joined Perform in 202o. I am a chatty Mancunian with thirteen nieces and nephews. My adventures as an actor have led me to live in Paris as a dancer in Disneyland, tour the UK visiting the biggest theatres and even into the West End as well as Performing with the Band, Take That. I love using the skills from my acting and family life to put together lessons that will have the children roaring with laugher and achieving things that they never thought possible.

AREA PARTNER

Gemma

I'm one of the Perform Area Partners. I'm so lucky to meet so many wonderful Perform children when I visit different classes and watching their confidence blossom throughout their time with us. My background is musical theatre and I have performed in many different shows in the West End and in theatres around the UK. During my time in Les Miserables, I got to sing at the European football final at Wembley and the 25th anniversary concert at the O2!

AREA PARTNER

Oliver

Hi, I'm Oli! I've been with Perform since 2012 and work as an Area Partner, as well as running my own classes. Outside of Perform, I produce theatre shows and work in artist and live event management. Children have an incredible ability to find joy in the world around them, and that's one of the things I love most about my job. As an Area Partner, it's a privilege to support and develop our Teachers, helping even more children celebrate their individuality and discover what they're capable of.
