I honestly can’t tell you how much Rory, aged 5, loves coming to Mad Hatters!

We’ve seen his confidence grow so much, and it’s given him such a lovely way to express himself. He’s constantly putting on performances at home and showing off what he’s learnt to family and friends!

He has so much fun every week and always comes out buzzing, excited to tell us all about what he’s been doing. His big bursts of energy and cheeky sense of humour definitely fit right in!

Thank you so much Mad Hatters or all your hard work, enthusiasm and for creating such a fun, welcoming environment.

We couldn’t recommend Mad Hatters enough!

We couldn’t be happier with our experience at Mad Hatters! ❤️🎭

Clara, aged 9, absolutely loves going and looks forward to every session. She has so much fun, adores her teachers and has made some wonderful friendships along the way.

​

Since joining Mad Hatters, we’ve seen Clara’s confidence grow so much. Her determination and passion have really shone through, and she has gone on to secure main roles in her school productions. It’s amazing to see her talents, confidence and hard work being recognised, and we couldn’t be prouder of her!

Mad Hatters Theatre School has given Clara such a fantastic space to express herself, develop her skills, build confidence and, most importantly, enjoy doing something she loves.

We’re so grateful to the teachers for their encouragement, support and for creating such a fun, welcoming environment where she can thrive.

We would wholeheartedly recommend Mad Hatters to anyone looking for a Theatre School where their child can grow in confidence, make amazing friends and have the best time doing something they love.

We couldn’t ask for more! ✨❤️

Before joining Mad Hatters, Lana was very shy and struggled with stage fright. Watching her confidence grow and seeing her come out of her shell has been truly heartwarming.

To see her now stepping on stage, believing in herself and doing something she loves makes me so incredibly proud.

​

She has also made some wonderful friendships with such kind and welcoming children, giving her a real sense of belonging.

Mad Hatters has helped Lana blossom both on and off the stage, and I couldn’t be more grateful for the positive impact it has had on her.

She absolutely loves being part of the Mad Hatters family! ❤️🎭

Grace started as a really timid member of the Mad Hatters family and just three years on, she’s like a completely different child! The confidence Grace has gained since attending is astounding.

​

She loves learning all three disciplines and can’t wait to get stuck in and learn new songs, dance routines and sharpen those acting skills each week.

​

I believe these skills will benefit her for life.

Elsie attended the summer school this year and loved it so much she asked if she could join Mad Hatters so that she could go every week!
 

She really looks forward to going each week and her confidence has improved so much already.

Thank you Hollie and everyone at Mad Hatters 🥰

We absolutely love being part of the Mad Hatters Theatre School family. It is such a warm, welcoming and vibrant environment, full of energy, enthusiasm and creativity.

There is always so much going on, with a wonderful range of opportunities for the children to learn, grow, perform and build their confidence.

​

We particularly love the shows, from the Christmas Revue to the Mad Hatters Summer productions.

The themed weeks, visiting external providers and the variety of theatrical experiences on offer make it such a rich and exciting experience for the children.

However, what we value most is the sense of community and belonging. The team create an environment where every child feels encouraged, included and inspired.

Being at Mad Hatter’s really does feel like being at home, and we feel very lucky to be part of it.

Neither my Wife nor I have any experience in the Arts, so we were unsure of what to expect when we sent our eldest, Oli to the Mad Hatters Summer School just over three years ago.  Oli was cast as one of four leads roles and loved the experience. 

It was quite clear after that week, he'd found something he really enjoyed and he wanted to become a member of the Mad Hatters!

It was through learning and enjoying himself here, that he decided to push,  audition and give his best shot at the big stage to which he succeeded and is now enjoying his West End Debut in Matilda The Musical at the Cambridge Theatre.

Also it has encouraged his little brother Leo to follow his footsteps and Leo now has a new found confidence, passion and is also enjoying himself as a "Mad Hatter".

Mad Hatters Theatre School is great for inclusivity, confidence building and helps to nurture and develop all levels of talent.

Scott, Parent of Oli in Young Hatters (Seniors) & Leo in Little Hatters (Juniors)

Going to Mad Hatters makes me feel happy. I have made friends who are nice.

We get to perform, be brave and independent and be brighter than who we think we are. I feel like we should all be confident and be in the show and make Hollie proud.

It would be fun to have new friends to play games with and sing and dance in the show.

Mad Hatters also gives me a talent that I never knew I had and now I like performing on stage.
