We are wrapping up this GTS term with TWO showcases. Both will be a culmination of months of dedication and years of GTS’ commitment to teaching our students in the pursuit of excellence.

‘CELEBRATE: 15 YEARS OF THE GUILDFORD THEATRE SCHOOL’ will be taking place on Sunday, the 28th of June at the Yvonne Arnaud. This is a one-night-only showcase that reflects GTS’s values and showcases our students' talent, heart, and sheer graft.

‘JUST SO’ will be taking place on the Saturday, the 4th of July, at the Ben Traverse Theatre. It is another one-night showcase that highlights the hard work, growth, and vibrancy of the drama students here at GTS.

Please remember to buy your tickets! Your support as an audience member means everything to us here at GTS. Giving our students the chance to perform and enhance their skills in front of a live audience is a top priority at Guildford Theatre School. It is overwhelmingly appreciated by our students and staff to see you coming out to support.

Uplift the next generation of performers, and let’s sell these shows out, GTS family! ♥️

🌟 A Double Celebration for Guildford Theatre School 🌟

Today we’re celebrating something truly special!

Guildford Theatre School has officially held CDMT Recognised School status for 15 years - a decade and a half of meeting the highest standards in dance, drama and musical theatre training. It’s a mark of quality, rigour and trust, and we’re incredibly proud to uphold it year after year.

And there’s more…

We’ve once again been selected as a Champion Centre for Trinity College London, recognising the exceptional standard of our exam preparation, our commitment to student progression, and the consistently outstanding results achieved across our centre.

Why this matters:

⭐️ CDMT Recognition means families can trust that our training, safeguarding, governance and teaching practice meet the gold standard for performing arts education.
⭐️ Trinity Champion Centre status is awarded to centres who demonstrate excellence, innovation and consistently high achievement in Trinity qualifications.
⭐️ Together, these honours reflect the heart of GTS: expert training, joyful learning, and a community where every student can thrive.

Here’s to the next chapter of excellence at Guildford Theatre School ♥️
