Burnham-on-Sea
Starlight Dance & Musical Theatre School Burnham is our newest acquisition to the Starlight Portfolio. The studio had been previously well established in the town and became part of the Starlight group in September 2023.
Historically the school focused on technical dancing such as Ballet & Tap however since becoming Starlight we have introduced a variety of classes including our show team classes, Musical Theatre and Circus Skills.
The school has undergone a huge change and has grown massively in recent months, adding Circus Skills and Acro to the timetable. We continue to hope to see more growth, more shows and many more opportunities in the future.
