PRODUCER

Megan

I've been working with Perform since 2024. I love seeing how our classes nurture children, build their self confidence, and help them develop skills that will stay with them for life. I have a Certificate of Higher Education in Theatre Arts from East 15 Acting School and a BA in Acting from Rose Bruford College. I love both screen-acting and theatre, especially Shakespeare!

AREA PARTNER

Sophie

I'm a Perform Teacher, Producer and Area Partner. I trained at the Bristol Old Vic Theatre School and alongside working for Perform have appeared in many television programmes for the BBC and Channel 4. Recently, I've been in several of the Perform shows in the West End! What I love about teaching for Perform is seeing how much children change during their time with us. It is a joy to see children having so much fun as they are learning!
