Parent Testimonials

On Stage is a highlight and a priority of the school holidays for my son...you return to me each day a happy, engaged, bright, energetic and enthusiastic human being that can’t stop talking, taking me through minute by minute what has happened that day

Every time my daughter participates in an On Stage workshop she comes away with so many new skills. She meets new people, has oodles of fun and always ends the week feeling really good about herself.

You all go above and beyond – in particular I really appreciate the 'kiss and drop' service – it takes all the stress out of the drop off/pick up times for me.


On Stage Program Scholarships

Proudly funded by the Adelaide Festival Centre Foundation

Whilst this Technical Theatre program is free of charge to all participants, Adelaide Festival Centre offers a limited number of travel assistance scholarships to young people who would not normally have the opportunity to participate in arts learning due to their remote location.
