Built on
confidence, not just talent.

Simply Performers was created to give children a place to grow in confidence, creativity and performance. Whether they dream of centre stage or are just discovering their spark.

Lizzie's story

Where it
all began.

Simply Performers started with one simple goal — to create exciting performing arts classes where children could grow in confidence, creativity and skill while genuinely enjoying themselves.

What began as one small class has grown into a vibrant community across Kent and South East London, with children taking part in dance, singing, drama, productions and performance opportunities throughout the year.

Lizzie's background in schools and performing arts helped shape the welcoming, supportive atmosphere Simply Performers is known for today — combining high energy classes with encouragement, teamwork and big stage moments.

“Some children discover a passion for performing arts straight away. Others grow into it over time. Our job is to help every child enjoy the journey.”

What we stand for

The three things
that drive everything.

Confidence
We don't just teach children to perform. We teach them to trust themselves — on stage and off it. Real confidence comes from being seen, encouraged and challenged in equal measure.
Creativity
Every child has a creative voice. Our job is to find it, nurture it and give it somewhere to go. Classes are structured but never rigid — there's always space for expression.
Community
Families stay with Simply Performers for years — because it becomes part of their lives, not just their timetable. The friendships, the shows, the shared moments matter as much as the steps.

Inclusive by design

No child is
left behind.

Lizzie and the Simply Performers team have specialist experience working with children with SEND (Special Educational Needs and Disabilities) and SEMH (Social, Emotional and Mental Health) needs.

This isn't an add-on or an afterthought — it's woven into how every class is designed and delivered. Every child is assessed individually, and adaptations are made wherever they're needed.
