Individual
Recommendations are based on the performer’s actual experience, objectives, discipline and available resources.
A connected approach
Helping performers move from advice to action.
Next Stages was founded by Dave Wiggins to bring coaching, professional practice and creative production together around the individual.
Why Next Stages exists
Talent is only one part of professional practice.
Performers are often expected to make complex decisions about training, repertoire, auditions, agents, self-employment, branding and promotion - while also creating technically credible photographs, recordings and video.
Next Stages offers one place to assess those needs, develop the underlying work and create the material required to present it. Support is personalised, practical and grounded in professional experience.
Professional
Coaches combine relevant qualifications with active experience in performance, education, direction and creative production.
Practical
The work can finish with something useful: a stronger audition, a recording, a showreel, a set of photographs, a plan or a complete portfolio.
