On Thursday Elena from Stagemakers popped in to talk about her organisation Stagemakers and what makes it a triple award winning success.  Elena was in the East Herts Radio Studio's on Thursday to record an interview with Presenter Mickey Gocool. 

"My name is Elena & I am the founder of Stage Makers Academy. I decided to open a Drama School locally as I felt there was a need for Performing Arts based training like ours. I myself trained in Acting at a London Drama School. I then went on to complete 4 years studying Drama & Film at University and spent a year training in California, all at which I began directing & choreographing Productions for Children’s Theatre. After graduation I worked for two global Production & Post Production companies in Film & TV before deciding to follow my dream of opening up a Drama School. Taking my expertise & experience in both industries, our programmes have been carefully tailored to explore Stage Performance & Stage Production. The Academy is a place for the youth of today to explore all aspects of the performance world, both on stage and backstage. Stage Makers Academy is here to support healthy young minds and lives with the sole aim of nurturing expressive, happy & confident children all through the power of Drama.
