The Anglia Region Theatre School


Katy Stangroom L.N.A.T.D
I started dancing at the age of 4, at the then-named Janet Wright School of Dancing, and have loved performing ever since.

Despite studying Psychology at university I continued to dance and as the school evolved into the Anglia Region Theatre School (A.R.T.S) I found myself also developing as a performer as I added singing and drama lessons to my training.

A.R.T.S has become my second home and thanks to the training and opportunities Principals Vickie and Janet have provided me I have been lucky enough to embark on a professional dance career.

I have now performed all over the world alongside Bolshoi ballerinas and Moulin Rouge cast members, but nothing beats choreographing and performing for ARTS!

For as long as I can move I will dance and for as long as I can dance I will always return to the place and people that have supported and inspired me the most - thank you ARTS!
