SOUNDSTAGE is a professional music and performing arts school located at 140 Hardy Street, Crisps Lane, Nelson. We offer classes and individual tuition to people of all ages and abilities in our SING – DANCE – ACT – PLAY classes and private lessons.

We specialise in classes for children and young people, but we also see many adults who wish to learn something new or build on their existing skill-set in singing, dance, acting and music.
SOUNDSTAGE is where professional tuition in music and performing arts is taught to students who are passionate about exploring their potential as artists and parents who understand how valuable performing arts and music training can be to their children’s development.

Training in music, dance and drama can assist young people in finding confidence in presenting themselves to the world in what ever career they choose to pursue. It can assist with communication, coordination, lateral thinking and problem solving. It can also be an awesome stress release and energy burner! Students can start with us as young as 2 years old, we have programs suited to all ages and levels of ability. You can choose to do casual classes that don’t require a lot of commitment, or take your studies more seriously and sit exams through examination bodies such as, Trinity Guildhall of London and The New Zealand Association of Modern Dance.

If a career in music and performing arts is your dream, we can give you the tools, experience and internationally recognised qualifications to achieve your wildest dreams. Many SOUNDSTAGE graduates have gone on to work in music, film, T.V and theatre all over the world. We are equipped through our experience, knowledge and contacts to assist students with auditions to drama and music schools in NZ and Australia and also with professional auditions and casting calls.
Our Tutors are industry trained professionals who are passionate about their craft and excited about passing on their experience and knowledge.
