Stage-Ed

Stage-ed was founded by Michael Southern and Stephen Palfreman in 2012. Whilst starring in the West End production of Blood Brothers. Stage-ed have worked with over 500 schools across the UK, Europe and UAE so far engaging with over students and we are growing. As well as being performers at the top of their game – our workshop facilitators are some of the industries finest Theatre practitioners. We work with Drama and English teachers and students, helping them with their studies. These are not just themed workshops but an absolute must to help with your exam studies. From Set text Drama/English workshops, Styles and Practitioners, Devising, Physical Theatre, Shakespeare, our sessions are offered as workshops, Masterclasses and Performance workshops. We have also just launched our already popular online sessions to both accommodate schools social distancing measures and as a superb addition to our workshops. All the workshops have been co created by educational specialists to target and develop the Core Skills and Personal Learning and Thinking Skills of the students involved. The sessions are designed to be fun and fully Inclusive so that all of the students regardless of ability can access the content easily and participate all of the time. A great emphasis is placed upon working collaboratively as an ensemble to promote a positive working environment in which all student’s have the opportunity to create, and voice ideas and opinions in a safe and supportive learning situation. We believe by developing drama skills we encourage self confidence and self awareness. Our testimonial page gives an idea of how well received our workshops have been, by both teachers and students. The idea is that we leave the students feeling enthused, inspired, and they should be talking about the session for weeks after. We are extremely proud that every school that has booked us to date has invited us back to deliver another workshop more than once!
