Stella Mann founded the College that still bears her name in Hampstead in 1946, where it gained a reputation as one of the finest ballet schools in the country. Since Mary Breen took over from Stella in 1985, the College has diversified its training to include a wide range of up-to-date musical theatre and dance skills and styles.
Bedford is a lively and friendly riverside town. There is a vibrant student life with students from the University of Bedfordshire and Bedford College mixing with those from Stella Mann College. As the College and student accommodation are located near the town centre, students have easy access to the wide range of pubs, clubs, bars and restaurants that the town has to offer, as well as the excellent range of High Street shops.
One of Stella Mann College's primary entrance requirements has always been to offer places based on an audition. Please read through it before your audition day, and GOOD LUCK! Admission is by audition only. All auditions follow guidance on good practice in audition procedures produced by the Council for Dance, Drama and Musical Theatre.
Graduates from the College are able to choose diverse career paths as a result of a broad and thorough training. Currently, graduates are appearing in musicals and shows all over Europe, pantomime in the UK, and on cruise liners all over the world. Many other students are finding success within the pop industry.
